Title: America no longer land of the free economy?
Post by: mike.redd1266 on September 18, 2013, 08:40:09 AM
QuoteThe 2013 annual Economic Freedom of the World Index by the Frasier Institute is out and once again the United States has little to brag about.

That's because — for a nation that boasts in the ideals freedom and liberty — the U.S. ranks 17th on the list of most economically free countries in the world, behind countries like Estonia, Denmark and Chile.

Really? We are behind Estonia? But can anyone point at Estonia on a globe with out having to look it up on google or having to search for it?

The USA is supposed to be the best nation in the World and yet we still come behind Estonia when it comes to economy.

In 2000 we were ranked 2nd most economically free country in the world. What has happened since then? oh that is right, a few wars, some mortgage problems, and a collapse. Hopefully we can get back on track some time soom.
