Political compass is not an argument, you've not countered anything about my statement on policies. It doesn't matter how right the political party is if they don't actually implement any right-wing policy.

What is that even based on? Because when I look at the wikipedia entry for both it looks pretty much like "Whatever the hell I want", and they don't bother to explain why countries like Sweden and so on do much better even with their self-made economic freedom metric. These are two organisations that are insanely biased in the first place... I mean Fraser Institute is a well-known right-wing think tank in Canada and the Wall St Journal is fairly right-wing as well. They'd tend to put high ratings with countries they like compared to countries they don't like and then quietly ignore the western countries that don't fit their made up metrics.
