See... this is what i find funny about assumptive comments.
Slimbeast is from Sweden.

Which is doubly awesome because liberal Americans (especially on Reddit) love to talk about how Sweden is a paradise and the USA is a dump by comparison.

Sweden is sneaky conservative in a lot of areas. Not quite so much as say... France but still.
People focus so much on Welfare and Healthcare...

is a fun piece.

When you have continent of 47 nations of course there are going to be those that are more conservative than others (nations with catholic church usually....). Nations that actually are near the top in pretty much every international ranking are usually the most liberal though...(Nordic countries, Germany, Netherlands, UK etc)

I'd look at the article, a lot of stuff in it applies directly to the countries you've mentioned.
I'm not sure there is a more fiscally conservative country then Germany for example... due to the huge influence of the Freiberg school of economics. Hell, Germany has no minium wage.

Well yeah maybe I should have seperated fiscal and social conservativism but even in fiscal sense germany has universal healthcare and completely free education system up to tertiary education so it seems like they use their own mixed conservative/ liberal policies when in comes to economy. Socially Germany is highly liberal though.
