You're not wrong.
But it's looking like the alternatives are also fertile ground for corruption, so this doesn't really render an effective criticism.

I don't like a 1-party system. I'd like a 0-party system, but I suspect in practice it'd either behave like a 1 party system or a typical western partisan system where people form voting blocks.
