The US is the most right-wing on economic issues, unless you count Mexico.

Switzerland is almost, if not as right wing as the US.

France is very right-wing, contrary to popular belief in the States.

French conservatives aren't conservative.


And why is that.  Their government is more economically conservative than many other European Governments.  They have an authoritarian stance on social issues (conservative does not mean "Christian Fundamentalist"), they have an extreme realist perspective in international affairs.
