Confiscate all of his wealth is a great idea however the one take took the effect is not only him, but also his family, and prison means nothing for the corruptor, i think the best way is exile them or maybe a dead sentence

To eradicate corruption  there should be  transparency and openness in government spending. In our country every public official should submit their SALN before and after their term. But the best way is to pay the civil servants well. In that case , they'll not be attempted to get funds from the government illegally. IN contrary, people who is preoccupied in getting rich will do anything just to get what they want even using illegal means. That's the sad truth.

This is a pretty hard question. As much as the people would like corruption to stop, there are a lot of politicians who would rather make themselves rich. We can just hope and pray that later on these people will realize that it's going to result in a major disaster if they don't stop.

Justice is a myth as long as money is a factor

Politicians and police and anyone in the government can be trusted just as much as the people in prison or people that live on the street.

If a government employee being caught taking bribe or embezzling funds from the budget, even single time, remove presumption of innocence from all his assets (house, land, car, jewelry, bank account etc) and require him to prove source of the income from which he had acquired these assets. If he cannot prove legality of his incomes, confiscate ALL properties belonging to him or transferred to his relatives after investigation started.

For many corruptioners prison time is nothing! After serving few years he can start living like a millionaire having money he stole.

Yeah i agree. It's already proven that a lot of corrupt people who actually were sent to jail can live luxurious lives even inside correctional institutions. These people already have a lot of money that can influence those who uphold the law so there's ni sense in sending them to prison where they'd just live like kings. I admire the people from japan who up to know still value moral and honor. I think corrupt people should be given the most severe punishment because they affect more people's lives than regular criminals
And who can watch over this? Corruption to persist unites the corrupt officials in the club. They are everywhere and we care about each other in order for this phenomenon is preserved.

The best way to eradicate corruption is to begin at home. The government must focus on the child rearing and child nurturing of parents to their children inside the family to strengthen the values and morals of the children so that they will have strong will to overcome greed that is the main source of corruption. If the government together with the parents will not focus on this aspect then corruption will not leave all sectors of society.

Have the criminals corrupt themselves.
As they say: Evil will do upon itself and eradicate the wicked from all of this earth. Grin

That would just worsen the scenario. If they are corrupting themselves, they will soon corrupt the system and all will do the same and will result to much worst. Better to stop them while they are doing it and eradicate them.  But that's true, if they kill each other because of it, that's great, which is highly unlikely to happen, as they would just connive with each other to do a much bigger conspiracy to corrupt more.

The authorities already do this in my country. But the criminals are smart and they hide what they stole. Even after serving time they come out and are funded to keep doing crime. Its a state of mind you cannot change someone's mind even with prison.
If the person is corrupt, it is always possible to find the money to forfeit. Just investigation are the same corrupt as he is and therefore the money does not find. To fight corruption it is necessary that the journalists were investigating transferred materials to Prosecutor's office and got a piece of the confiscated property.

The best way to eradicate corruption and crime is to ensure a strong job market where everyone is able to work and have a good job, without needing to resort to nefarious means to provide for themselves & their families.

It invokes wealth and wage equality, a fair and decent standard of living for poor to middle class income earners.

Crime and corruption are what people turn to when they feel abandoned by politicians, world leaders & feel as if they have no hope. Crime is a last resort.

It can't be eradicated. Corruption has been going on since recorded history. People will always be tempted, bribe so essence, its already corruption. Corruption though is more prevalent is 3rd or developing countries. Laws are always there very bad people will corrupt police, government official just to get what they want because of money.

We need a law to dismiss from service if found to be involved in corruption. For instance if you see cases where anti-corruption bureau rides an officers home and finds disproportionate assets, the officer is suspended from employment and taken for judicial trials. But after couple of years you will find them in employment at same or even better positions. So this creates no fear among the officials against corruption.
And we can also keep transactions online and provide bill for every purchase: Many of them do not pay taxes and escape.  This is where bitcoin can come into picture.

Do not forget that to prove the origin of their income can not only corrupt, but also those who earn their money honestly just don't want to pay the full taxes. I also don't cry and don't think it's bad.
Proposed confiscation will apply only to the assets acquired after offender took the office. This is penalty for corruption and not tax evasion in the past.

That is a way too hard punishment to take control of all his assets, as people raping or murdering have lower sentences...
Not all assets. Only these for which offender cannot prove legal source of income to buy them.

We cannot 100% eradicate it, but one way to lessen it to have transparency in each country. In our country we encouraged to have transparency to all government officials. Corrupt people are everywhere even an ordinary person can do it. I am not generalizing it, but it is the truth. So for me, I'd rather change myself before accusing other people and let God punish them.

I like you're way of thinking, let God punish them. If everyone thought this way then I would definitely be a drug king pin.

It seems to me that you want to deal with the consequence rather than the cause. If an official takes money in order to bypass some sort of law, then you should think, and whether such a law.
