By back then I mean in the 50's, 60's and 70's.

I really don't know so thats why I want to know what everyone thinks.

Probably either a little less or about the same as now.

I agree the same as now, but now it's probably larger and definitely under the covers. Just look at what happened with Madoff, the largest known case. Corruption exists everywhere in the institutions, and on all levels. Even in Formula 1 where tons of money are involved.
