I always find those lists kind of silly. "Best country" is very subjective. We all value different things as individuals. Personally I dont mind paying high taxes because I dont feel bad about helping out my fellow citizens who are less fortunate. But then someone else will of course feel completely different about this issue.
So ... best country is the one YOU like living in. Except maybe for hell-holes like Burkina Faso.
yes just noticed as well ... wheres new zealand in that list?
