It's the most corrupt state in America

Ethics and integrity take a back of condemnations and corruption in this double state.


Each year, the Independent Anti-Corruption Organization Transparency International publishes its Corruption Index Report (CPI), an analysis ofmisconduct in the public sector regions around the world. According to the most recent CPI report, the United States ranked 23 ° C on 180 countries examined. And while the United States has always been better ranked to the comparison of most parts of the world, the CPI indicates that since 2015,Corruption has increased steadily Across the country. In this spirit,Better life Define to determine the most corrupt state in America.

To find out where corruption is the biggest problem in America, we used data fromThe Ministry of Justice (Doj) to determine the number ofCONVICTIONS OF PUBLIC CORRUPTION for 10,000 inhabitants in the 50 states. Data data for "violations of the federal law in corruption, extortion, police brutality, theft of governmental goods and other cases involving a violation of public confidence", according to the doj.

We also included data on the number of violations reported by physicians and other health care providers filed between 1990 and 2020, according to theNational Practitioner Database. We have included both the number of unfavorable action reports (legally required to be filed when a physician or other health practitioner is reprimanded in a number of ways - to be suspended from the issuance of their license Revocated - Due to the form of an misconduct or professional incompetence), as well as payment reports for lack of medical profession (legally required to be filed when a health care organization has published a payment to a patient caused physical damage resulting from physician negligence).

Then we referred to the coalition for the most recent states of integrity with anti-corruption measures for the report of public officials, known as theThe S.W.A.M.P. index. The laws of each state are evaluated on their scope and institution of ethics organizations and, above all, how effective these agencies are. The transparency exercised by public officials accepting gifts is an example of the factors that contribute to the score of each state on the scale of 100 points of the index, where a score of 0 indicates the highest level of corruption possible.

Finally, we watched theState Integrity Survey led by the Center for Public Integrity. This is another in-depth assessment of state responsibility and transparency. The integrity score is based on 245 questions that explain key indicators such as public access to information, election monitoring, internal audit, state pension fund management, agencies. application of ethics and judicial responsibility. Once again, higher scores mean more integrity, while the lowest are less equal.

We then gave each of these five metrics a weighted value and encountered our exclusive algorithm to calculate how each state marked on our corruption index, where 100 is the most corrupt score that a state can receive and 0 is the least. Read it to discover the most corrupt state in America and find out where yours is in the mix. And for more behavior not recommended around the country,This is the most dishonest state of America.
