So... the same stuff that Foggy Bottom has said the US is guilty of?

Close. The Hillary Statist Department doesn't like them because they don't have affirmative action for women and minorities. Amnesty International doesn't like them (death penalty issues).

But Freedom House rates them as "free".

And Heritage Foundation puts them 40th in world for economic freedom (dropped a bit this year due to increased government spending, but still only slightly lower than Western European countries. They are rated 2d most free in the Sub-Saharan African group (The first appears to be the Indian Ocean island nation of Mauritius, so second is not that bad)

I never got to that area, but the missionaries from that region spoke of it approvingly. So I figured it was fairly well run.
