They are actually a normal part of all human interaction. But some countries feel more "morally compelled" to pretend that isn't the case.
Consider any transaction in which both parties go away happy. The seller has to feel that he/she made a profit (charged more than the item is worth, or more than it really cost), and the buyer has to feel the item is worth more than he/she paid for it, otherwise why not buy it somewhere else?
To even consider this might be different in different countries is to misunderstand the nature of human beings, and the nature and purpose of business!
