Who benefits from non-responsibility?
Why are we not capable to produce figures capable to shoulder public burdens and are thrustworthy enough?
Why do we prioritize moral shortcomings of a person/character over the effectiveness of the work when discussing politics?
Whore, drink and murder all night for all i care, if the individual can prevent ecologic collapse and economic collapse during the day, thats still a good deal, even if i would be among the murder victims.
If the discourse around problems is so slanted towards "unimportant" topics, who can we remove from the discourse culturewise to refocus it? Can we build a social platform that punishes distractions from importance and reward contributions, according too global prioritys? A synthetic algorithmic clutch, focusing human attention away from the gossip..
Imagine a politics, without the person, only there legal actions being reviewed and percieved. Could been even annonymized as just a Nr.

This is too simplistic due to second order effects. E.g. visibly doing those things makes it far more likely other people in slightly lower positions of power will try it on, many crossing the boundaries of what they can get away with. Then the corruption starts along those fuzzy boundaries until it infects everything else.
Classic corruption infects mostly along the "i can extract value from him by threatening to tell the law" lines.
We are worser of then that now, because the politics and the law production is corrupted.
And to reduce that a start would be to focus on the law generated, to have that uncorrupted. If there is laws that forbid politicians from taking money, classic corruption might even reemerge.
