How can we stop corruption ?
Greater solutions may include population control to
improve the quality than the quantity, Controlling
population will bring up the quality of life and thus
lesser competition and effective control of people and
government processes.
However feasible solutions are to impart moral
principles in schools, and introduction of stringent
audits, accountability, effective tracking of corrupt
individuals through citizen cards or tax id's.

Computerization of processes, privatization of public
sectors, eliminating the chain of corruption by not just
punishing the first level but also higher levels involved.
Corruption is not limited to atheists, even the most
corrupts are highly religious and have close family ties,
in other words corruption has no boundaries.
Religion and religious congregations can support and
promote anti-corruption drives.
Corruption is NOT a luxury tax. Whoever described
corruption is a luxury tax probably said it out of
frustration, the religion of corruption, the corruption of
politics, the dishonest souls and perversion of integrity is
unpardonable.
