So there seems to be a massive problem that I have noticed recently that's popped up: somehow the dev's either forgot some lines of code or some IQ-points regarding the statistics for "Corruption" and "Integrity". These two metrics are in direct opposition to each other yet somehow I find nations like my own, where we have around 93% "Integrity" (which, by definition, reduces "Corruption") yet in the nation's textual description, it refers to the government as "corrupt". Pardon my French, but that's not f****** acceptable. I'm sure I'm not the only one who does not appreciate a nation being labeled as "Corrupt" whenever "Integrity" is upwards of 90% (and the actual metric of so-called "Corruption" is sitting at an incredibly low 18 to 20 figure or even lower). De facto, any nation with governmental "Integrity" over 90% does not have a corrupt government. Please fix this. Thank you.

The integrity stat changes much slower than the corruption stat, so it's not that abnormal. While 90%+ of bribes might still be refused, it represents a significant and detectable problem within your society.

According to the "Trend" page, the "Corruption" category is, where "World Census officials visited a range of government departments and recorded how frequently bribes were required to complete simple administrative requests." and is measured in "Kickbacks Per Hour;" whereas "Integrity" is where, "World Census agents tempted government officials with financial and other inducements to bend the rules and recorded how often their proposals were declined," and is measured as a "Percentage Of Bribes Refused". That means that "Corruption" needs to be numerically measured as 100%-[Integrity %]. It's easy math.
