what a win for consumer protection! far too often a bribe is made and no quid pro quo is delivered. with this decision, a standard of post-action payment is established, ensuring an equitable system in which the consumer only pays once the deed is done

does this mean bribes can be regulated by the FTC?

this is about government accountability, if you think about it

I'd have preferred it if they also created a right of action for corrupt officials against bribe-offerers who failed to honor the terms of the bribe. I mean sure, we're all sympathetic to the little guy with a sack of cash, but our system of bribes is based on mutual accountability.
