America has a huge economy & relatively few legislators. The return on investment for corruption in America is _huge_ compared with other democratic countries.
I do think the FPTP system in the US and UK concentrates power. And that makes them better able to exploit foreign countries (Arms deals, coups etc). But that seems less about lobbying it's more that the concentration of power makes lobbying more profitable.
