We're No. 12! Report: U.S. Not Among Top Nations for Economic Freedom
The Index rates economic freedom for countries on 10 quantitative and qualitative factors that are based on four pillars of freedom: rule of law, limited government, regulatory efficiency and open markets.
“Although the precipitous downward spiral in U.S. economic freedom since 2008 has come to a halt in the 2015 Index, a 1.6-point decline in overall economic freedom over the past five years reflects broad-based deteriorations in key policy areas, particularly those related to upholding the rule of law and limited government,” states the report.
When President Obama took office in 2009, the United States ranked sixth for economic freedom. Now in 2015, the United States has fallen by six to 12th place.
The business freedom score for each country is a number between 0 and 100, with 100 equaling the freest business environment,” explains the report. The United States received an 88.8 in this category.
For most Americans, they don’t think America is out of this crisis. They think that this is still a recession, because incomes have not grown, and I make the case it’s because we’ve done so much wrong.
