Unless your using good government, in such a broad way, that those who support a greater degree of capitalism could call less socialistic intervention an example of good government, than its more than just good government. Denmark, Findland, Sweden, and Norway, all score higher on property rights than France, Greece, or Italy, and there scores for investment freedom are generally higher as well (although Norway's is lower than Italy's), and the group average score score for labor freedom (freedom from restrictive labor laws), is higher for the more northern countries (but that's mostly Denmark the others are comparable to the southern countries). They also score higher on "freedom from corruption", which you might legitimately represent as more "good government" than "freedom", but its not like it is the only important distinction.
