It is controversial because the President can pardon anyone! Take Nixon and Goldwater for example. Nixon was convicted of spying on th opposite party. Nixon stepped down, but was still charged. When Goldwater became president, he pardoned Nixon of all of his charges which caused a huge uproar. That's fair, right?
When a gouvernement have corrupt rulers it loses its sense of justice wich make it ruled by money . Weak rulers cannot improve the nation's economy nor the corrupt ones.
