There is a pretty large difference in degree.
Consider the fact that the Sochi Winter Olympics cost $50 billion whereas the Vancouver Winter Olympics cost $6.4 billion. The median income is about ten times higher in Canada than in Russia.
That vast difference was corruption money for the elite. Corruption in Russia is pervasive and on a completely different scale than in the West, particularly in Northern Europe.
