Corruption is perceived as minimal. The U.S. ranks 20th out of 179 countries in Transparency International's Corruption Perceptions Index for 2007. The U.S. is a leader in fighting corruption, both domestically and overseas. In 1977, it became the first country to pass a law making bribery of foreign officials a crime. The United States has the strongest record of any OECD Anti-Bribery Convention signatory, with 103 prosecutions, a broad scope of coverage, and severe penalties.

They should really take a look at how they define bribery.
