It's more about making the corruption accessible. Corruption is inevitable, this is covered in Plato's Republic and still holds true today. If people were not corrupt there would be campaigns to avoid political office, not seeking it.
The difference many times in the level of success of a nation is the level and accessibility of corruption. The US is extremely corrupt, political office is held almost entirely as a means of personal enrichment. Economic consideration is exchanged quid pro quo as a matter of fact in many scenarios. However these corrupt practices are carried out in an open format under a set of guidelines that mean anyone with money can access the corrupt system. Anyone can look at the system and say objectively "this is wrong" but doing away with it only pushes it behind closed doors and limits access to a select few.
