Economic Freedom? U.S.A. is Surely at the Top?

Nope. The 2013 index is out and the U.S.A. ranks a lucky 10th. To read how a country is indexed, read "Economic Freedom on the Wane, Limited Government not so Limited Anymore,"  written by Ed Feulner, president of the Heritage Foundation in a article in the Wall Street Journal on January 15, 2013.

Most business people don't need to read this article. They already know that the Obama regime is practicing socialism on business owners who still believe economic freedom got them and this country to where it was at the turn of the century. Even many business owners who should have known better and who twice voted for Obama are becoming doubters. Problem is they didn't see many Republicans who don't like to expand governments power and tax and spend even though they often talk a good opposition game. They closely follow where the money came from to get them elected and how they can return the favor with taxpayer dollars.

We live in a "more government if it benefits me first" era or haven't we noticed?
