I agree with Willy Loman and his definiton of corrupt. They are corrupt in that they have strayed so far from their original doctrines. They are just acting in desparation now. The money part is kept so secret that nobody would know if its on the up and up or not. It's not like they have an accounting firm come in and do an audit every year and publish the results. And also the absolute power that the GB has is just a breeding ground for corruption.

Corrupt---to change from good to bad in morals, to decay
I think they're more rotten from the top down.

They are now doing what they want and teaching what they want because they are God's unchallenged annointed. Same attitude of the jewish priest hood.
Since all the scriptures in the OT they now claim apply to them as SPIRITUAL Israel, so too do those showing them as corrupt. It is ridiculous to claim all the nice things apply to them as spiritual Israel, then claim all the other horrible things apply to Christendom as "antitypical" Jerusalem.
The self-serving change in 1935 for the annointed also shows it. Since only 2 of the GB were even BORN before 1935 it is transparent to anybody who thinks, that they changed this doctrine to give themselves credibility. Just like they changed 1914 generation because theywere becoming a laughing stock.
They no longer change doctrines out of love of the truth, but because it suits their agendas at the time. They do what is expedient for their own interests not the flock they claim God has entrusted to their care.
QV the dismissal of elderly Bethel staff, or the fight in Spain to avoid paying for pensions and health care of the aged and ill who spent their life working for them as slaves in Beth Hell.

As for the "Defense " that they are "good" men and "sincerely believe they have the truth"
THE VAST MAJORITY OF CATHOLIC PRIESTS ARE GOOD MEN AND SINCERELY BELIEVE theirs is the truth.
But the WTBTS seems almost gleeful that this will not save them from Jehovah's flesh rotting plague.
Talk about double standards. Romans 2: 12 - 16 seems to escape their notice here.

Someday, I wouldn't be shocked if the Watchtower came to the conclusion that ALL JWs are anointed (just like they originally believed).

If they could, they would gain ownership of everyone and everything in the world. You would have to have their permission before doing anything. You would own nothing--even after you paid for it, the Washtowel Slaveholdery would still own it. Plus, they would legalize their version of "knowledge", effectively freezing it to whatever their washtowels and asleeps tell us. Then, they would have plunged the whole world into the Second Dark Ages.

They are corrupted from head to their toes...
They know that their dates 607-1914 are wrong and they keep follow the mistake done by Russell and the rest of the WT's presidents. But they keep the date in order to have the business running. Other wise if they go out openly and say they were wrong then there would be no one to control. Because it is all about control...
Regarding the other religious and as for my faith that is Christian Orthodox there is corruption, but also there are true people that do serve and love God. The diffrence is that no one will stop me from having education, or act how I want, dress, no one is going to disfellowship me if I will disagree in some issues, no one will keep me way from friends, and most of all if I need blood no one will condemn me, and no one will keep locked in fear of Armageddon

Knowing that their chronology is a lie makes them rotten to the core.
