Examples

“The immunity of the bosses from arrest and prosecution gives them great power.

“Bribery is a shadowy endeavor and, whereas one can measure⟳ the length of a paved road, the total number⟳ of mobile telephone subscribers, the rate of maternal mortality, and so on, hardly anyone has managed effectively to enumerate the myriad facets of corruption—the multiple manipulations and machinations that keep⟳ corrupters and corruptees in business.”
