Why don't the top football countries just make a new organization?

If the one country, one vote system is the problem, why don' the FAs of England, France, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, Denmark, US, Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Brazil, the Asian countries, etc. just create a new organization?
Without those countries there is no FIFA. There is no Champions League. There is no World Cup. Either they can demand changes to the distribution and voting structure or they can leave to create their own entity.

Because most of those countries were probably involved in the bribing process and getting benefit from the corruption

Because most of those FAs are just as bent as the rest of FIFA.

You don't seem to understand how this works.

In terms of voting, it is much easier (and more efficient) to bribe an island with a few thousand folks than a country the size of Spain.

They do but no one really gives a shite about it.

But it is possible for Spain to bribe an island...

Glamour friendlies. It's what England did.
And I am loving all the Americans up in arms about democracy.

Each state does not have one vote in the electoral college.

63-29 is a reasonable margin.

Yeah, and the most likely result of doing away with the electoral college is to go straight to popular vote, so unless you want every single person who lives in an area with a FIFA vote to get their own vote your comparison is bad.

There's a reason for the Electoral College but most people haven't read the Federalist Papers where this is explained in some detail.

We should take Bikini Bottom and push it somewhere else.
