What a meaningless list. You're looking at their "democracy" score. What does "democracy" mean in terms of this list? My guess is that it involves numerous "social democratic" (i.e., "free" stuff from the government) factors. It must, considering the countries on the list. That's not "freedom." That's largess.
And in any case, raw "democracy" =/= "freedom."
