Report Copyright Violation | Whoa! U.S. 'Economic Freedom' Index Crashes Under Obama from Second to 10th!? WTF? Beaten by Canada and Chile!? WOW! [link to www.fraserinstitute.org] This is the whole report. Kind of boring if you want the details.This is a 90 second video on what economic freedom means for a country and what the US is losing as our economic freedom crashes. Great video that quickly explains it all.
**************Folks, the countries with true economic freedom lead the world in nearly every category that is 'good'. Everything you want to see in a country that is prosperous is tied to their economic freedom.
In 2000 the U.S. was 2nd in the world in this category. We have fallen to 10th! That is a massive drop. Is any GLPer surprised? We can see our economic freedom being washed away by Obama every single day.
So sad. This is so important to our collective way of life and personal enjoyment of life.
The top 10: Hong Kong, Singapore, New Zealand, Switzerland, United Arab Emirates, Mauritius, Jordan, Ireland, Canada, with the United Kingdom and Chile tied at 10.***************Here is the article about this new stunning report:
The United States, ranked second in worldwide economic freedom as recently as 2000, has plummeted to 16th, according to a new report of world economies.
The Fraser Institute's annual report, Economic Freedom of the World, showed that the country's drop started in 2010, the second year of the Obama administration.
The world-recognized report showed that the U.S. fell in several areas, including legal and property rights and regulation.
"The United States, once considered a bastion of economic freedom, now ranks 16th in the world after being as high as second in 2000," said the report issued Monday morning.
