THE U.S. DROPS OUT OF
TOP 10 FREEST COUTRIES
FOR THE FIRST TIME

The U.S. dropped out of the freest countries in the 2014 Index of Economic Freedom. The U.S. was ranked the sixth freest economy in the world when Obama took office in 2009 and is the only country to have dropped down each year in the past seven years.

When you hear about your representative pushing new laws in Washington, D.C. don't take it for granted that the law is good for you. More often than not that law is being pushed by a special interest group that has made a large contribution to the politician to rip you off through the political process. If all the laws that were passed in the last seven years were good for your economic freedom then the U.S. would have moved up in the Index of Economic Freedom and not futher down as is the case.

How do you know when a politician is lying? When their lips are moving. Politicians are human and thus are morally susceptible to follow their own interests at your expense. That is the reason why a limited federal government is the only answer to protect your freedom and liberty.
