US drops to last place in economic freedom ranking under Joe Biden

[Ordinary Guy]

This year’s Index of Economic Freedom paints a disturbing picture, both at home and abroad," Heritage President Kevin Roberts said of the report. "The decline of American economic freedom is serious cause for alarm and has real and tangible consequences for all Americans, especially low-income families and the working class."

The report determined the U.S. fell 2.7 points from the 2021 Index of Economic Freedom to a record-low score of 72.1, according to the data released Monday. The U.S. also fell to its lowest ranking globally, from the 20th spot in last year’s rating to 25th in 2022.

The index, launched in 1995, evaluates countries on rule of law, government size, regulatory efficiency and open markets, while also examining specific categories such as property rights, judicial effectiveness, government integrity and tax burden.

Americans are currently dealing with 40-year highs in inflation, with the consumer price index rising 7.5% in January of this year compared to the same month in 2021. Biden’s first year in office also saw a supply-chain crisis, U.S. consumer confidence plunging to an 11-year low, industries rocked by vaccine and mask mandates and the U.S. national debt notching a new record when it surpassed $30 trillion.

Oh, snap! Biden hates the people of the United States and he could be taking money from the cartels who sell ten-ton knells to addicts who don't vote. He took money from the countries who received stipends in the form of foreign aid charged to the voters, and they're a little pissed off nobody in Congress rang the bell on his extortion. What is Congress? A money making experience for those who seek wealth from the voters working hard for their money? I wish I had never seen Biden bragging about taking a billion from the Ukrainians and getting someone who stood in his way fired from his high government office. That's contrary to the Constitution that Hillary Clinton hates with all the venom of poisonous snakes worldwide. I'm so sick of Democrats going to Congress to destroy the Constitution to make their lawlessness lawful.

AOC is voting our living away from us by sucking all the benjamins she can out of the people's pockets and into hers by way of feathering beds of the industries the GND will generate. She is saying hell with all the birds solar power fries, wind power chops in their whirlwinds built in migratory routes and anywhere the beautiful Osprey flies. Unless the last one has been defeathered by the merciless blades of wind power. All the Congress cares about is getting their toenails painted, wearing designer dresses that smack of hating their political enemies who used to be called rivals but no more. It's kill, win kill with the Democrats, if it puts money into their personal purses, and we're sick of them paying off papers and magazines to cover their crimes, and not investigate their means of becoming billionaires off of information they spend all their time hovering, hovering, hovering, hovering over like a pickpocket hovers over likeliest wallet locations on a man or purse of a woman.

They support the right and the far right. It is part of what they are paid for, to put out bad things about America, true or false if a Democrat is in office. Otherwise, how would they get their donations from the right? Their country rankings are strictly taylored to their right wing outlook. Damn my investments are doing great! I'm damned glad, they are damned wrong.

Both are highly partisan. It's tough to not note that when it's a fact.

My only disagreement is in allowing them to focus the contumely on Biden.
They'll simply put another figurehead in and continue the same destructive policies.

Democrat policies.

It is Democrats, writ large.

Every one of 'em needs to be booted from office.

Of course it does. I'll even note that they don't call it the "Heritage Foundation" report, but the Heritage report because they are trying to cover who they are. Click on the link and there is no link to the Heritage Foundation even though that is who is putting it out.

Does ANYONE like Biden, PK? He's been a disaster. I'm willing to bet he even makes YOU cringe whenever you watch one of his "performances"! If he gets lost on the teleprompter and wings it...every person who's controlling him cringes as well!

And when he talks his mouth doesn’t take the form of a butthole like the former 1-term president.

The only thing he has done that I support is getting us out of Afghanistan.

My point is bigger. Our problems are not just because of Biden. As I asked early, is telling farmers they can no longer make a living by selling their products to people they have sold them to for years a sign of economic freedom?

The reason we continue to fall further and further down the list is because people only want to condemn in a partisan manner.
