baltimore harbour


The place where the american national anthem took birth.

Also, a place where the city mayor could be tried and convicted for misappropriating gift cards to the tune of 630 $.

An amount that you would be expected to pay as bribe to the sarpanch of a village in India if you are the contractor bidding for the construction of the village road.

Multiply that by the standard of living factor. That is how matter-of-fact corruption is in India. And that is why roads to my village get washed away every monsoon.
