It should be “ten or fewer bribes,” but, since most elected officials in the U.S. speak English no better than 83% of the ignorant voters who elect them, “less” is a more accurate representation of our society.
@ Cavan: “Ten bribes or fewer” would be correct in English. However, Americanish is a different language with its own spelling (“color” or “meter” instead of colour and metre, for example), grammar (“visit with” instead of visit), nouns (“faucet” instead of tap) and so on. So for all I (as an English speaker) know, “ten bribes or less” is correct in Americanish.

If Belfry really wants to make more efficient, he should cut his job. There, that’s better.

I would think that for more efficient corruption, the express land should be for 10 bribes or more. Fewer trips through the queue.
