North Korea at last place is hardly a surprise. As always.

I would dispute the definition of freedom being used in this analysis. Freer markets don't necessarily mean freer people.

One of the biggest issues with so-called "free" markets is the encroachment of corporate rights over those of the individual. A certain amount of balance must be implemented by the government to protect consumer rights and such.

They'll strip the number one spot after the drug test. A French newspaper reported Estonia was doping.

Switch: Knee Deep In Clunge; +489|6890|Tyne & Wear, England

This table is completely redundant. For the most part freedom is an intangible quality.

To get fair results you would have to use qualitative information as opposed to quantitative.

Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.

Looks like I'm from the second 'freeest ' country on the planet. Whatever that means.

The most free you could be is in an anarchy, a realy high freedom rating might be considered bad.
