Whats in the News: Part 3 - 各國UN大使何他們所累積的罰款

記不記得前幾個星期有報導指出,各國UN使節在紐約所累積的罰款數,那數字好像很丟臉。

最近有研究將各國的罰款做分析,得出了相當驚人的結果:
There is a strong correlation between illegal parking [of foreign diplomats in
the United States] and existing measures of home country corruption. Even when
stationed thousands of miles away, diplomats behave in a manner highly
reminiscent of officials in the home country.

所以看來大家都把壞習慣帶到國外去了。

這是在Mankiw的部落格上找到的。
