Ladies and Gents, it's official, Australia ranked 3rd overall in the 2007 Index of Economic Freedom.

1st and 2nd place went to Hong Kong and Singapore respectively. Check the link for other countries:

Dear Gorilla,

Interesting, I've been to Singapore and Ireland, after a break of 10 years, recently. It seems as if their "social capital" , "happiness" has dropped in the past 10 years whereas ours appears the same if not better. Is there any correlation with the index you have quoted.

Hi Garpal,

Do you mean that their happiness seemed lower? Even though their prosperity is meant to be up?
