Good! 

One minor problem (maybe).  The rate limits are also 
applied in Anarchy, so if you're changing from Republic 
to Democracy (say), your rates get adjusted on the way.  
But they don't need to be, because I think the rates 
don't actually mean anything under Anarchy.
(No science/tax/upkeep, effectively max lux.)

If the rates _really_ don't do anything under anarchy 
(I think that's how its supposed to work) we could
fix this just by changing the Anarchy max rate to 100%
(+ your patch).
