This is what happens when human beings are reduced in identity to "workers" by a corporate society.
This is what happens when they are deliberately kept in conditions in which they must work long hours, and live in constant fear of losing their jobs or missing a paycheck, in order to meet basic needs.

I can't imagine why.
on edit: "Is corruption widespread throughout the government?" has risen from 59% in 2006 to 79% in 2013. There was a drop in 2009 from 72% to 66%, then it went up again.
