USA is not world's most democratic nation

[Wildfire]

The independent Austrian Association for Democracy Ranking has released the latest ranking of the quality of democracy,
based on 104 countries considered free or partly free.

Shockingly, the world's three biggest democracies never make it to the top 10 listing.

The U.S., famous for promoting democracy in other countries, only ranked fifteenth in the list. The U.K. ranked thirteenth
and France seventeenth.

This year, the United States dropped from ranking position 14 to 15 because of losses in economy and gender.

Norway is considered the most democratic country in the world, with New Zealand at number 7 appearing in the top 10 as
the only non-European country.

Following Norway are Sweden, Finland, Switzerland, Denmark, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Germany, Ireland and Austria.

Singapore ranked 39 with an improvement of two places over its previous rating.

The Democracy Ranking evaluates countries by applying "the following conceptual formula: Quality of Democracy = (freedom
& other characteristics of the political system) & (performance of the non-political dimensions). The non-political dimensions
are: gender, economy, knowledge, health, and the environment."

Hi Bro,

No specific rating details were provided with this report, but my guess is that improvement was due to 2011 election
of additional opposition members into parliament and not economic related.

So life is still miserable ... in this tiny Red Dot. :p

But one consolation though ... we are still 31 places above TonyChat's lousy Malaysia! Ha Ha ...

In the case of Malaysia, its not about human rights, its about ghost voters and vote buying.

In the case of USA, I just don't understand why corporations are allowed to make political contributions.
Anyway, all those English speaking countries such as US, Canada, UK and Australia have fake democracies. Notice they always have a two part system shenanigans to fool the people.
