Wisdom from the peanut gallery

I rarely read the comments at Kevin Drum's place but Avedon Carol does and found this gem from the swamp thing.

If any of us flaming liberals were asked to provide a list of countries that we think makes a good case for progressive, pro-active goverment, we would probably include Norway, The Netherlands, Denmark, New Zealand, France, Sweden, Japan, Finland, etc. Most all of those places have successful healthcare programs, an educated populace, worker security and so forth.

What I would like to know is-- Where are the successful right wing societies? Which countries would the wingnuts point to as models that prove their political theories are valid?
