IMO, The US has crumbling infrastructure, corrupt government, dangerous cities, and a lot of homelessness, among so many other problems. Hell, millions of people in the US don’t even have power right now.

What’s the difference?

      You’re right, they’ve ordered it that way, but they’ve specified that their scale is…

      [scored] on a scale of 0 (highly corrupt) to 100 (very clean)

      So you weren’t wrong about what you read.

      But without that context there, being “in the top ten of a corruption ranking” would usually mean the country is very corrupt, haha
