No matter what disabling of the perks and profits of officeholding you come up with, people in high elective office will find a way to increase their financial rewards.

The only feasible systemic solution is to go back to true federalism. The federal government should have its power dramatically curtailed and states should be restored to the sovereignty they enjoyed in the early days of the republic. Most important decisions should be decided locally. Would there be problems with doing this, I bet there would be. In fact, I am already thinking of several problems. But as long as a bunch of people get elected, move thousands of miles away, meet in an environment where the average citizen is essentially unwelcome, and decide matters of enormous power and wealth, you are going to have lots of corruption.
