The Fraser Institute's annual Economic Freedom of the World Report is out and it has bad news for Americans:
The United States is number one in economic freedom, right?
Wrong. Very wrong. The United States continued a years-long slide, plunging to a shocking 18th, its lowest-ever ranking.
The U.S. fall has been sharp and sudden. From 1980 to 2000, the United States was generally rated the third freest economy in the world, ranking behind only Hong Kong and Singapore. In 2000, the U.S. was in second place behind Hong Kong.
What happened? According to the report, much of this decline is a result of high spending on the part of the U.S. government, as well as excessive regulation.
"The United States, like many nations, embraced heavy-handed regulation and extensive over-spending in response to the global recession and debt crises. Consequently, its level of economic freedom has dropped," said Fred McMahon, Fraser Institute vice-president of international policy research.

Homosexuals have more than equal rights, in every state, and yet they just keep whining.
