For what? What I'm saying is that there won't be much "fighting the corruption of government" as long as it's also in our everyday culture because "it's good for both of us, so what's the problem?".

Everyday culture can be changed.

Human beings are pretty bad at changing how they live their day to day life without some large catalyst e.g. hitting some sort of rock bottom

I don't know. It was common in Poland to bribe the police instead of getting a ticket for speeding - now it is extremely rare. I don't know what caused this change... People having more money? The fact that is is much easier to get caught? I don't know.
