This kind of behavior would still exist without money. People would still fake stuff for the clout.

Sure but money motivates more people than clout alone

That's only because money exists. If you removed money from the equation, clout would be the new currency that everyone lies and cheats for.

OK, so money corrupts, money exists, everything is corrupt. What's the point of pointing that out?
