Having lived in both India and China for some time, I can assure you that the scale and magnitude is completely different.

I agree. The corruption in china is more explicit. While the corruption in the US goes through more official channels. It's harder to perceive in the united states. I would argue the net effect is similar though: The more money you have the more influence you have.

When someone says "the scale and magnitude is completely different," they aren't referring to "explicit."

I know plenty of people from China who have talked about the crazy levels of corruption there. Some are related to those in power, and they've said it very much goes through 'official channels.'
