If all printers were determined not to print anything till they were sure it would offend nobody, there would be very little printed. -- Benjamin Franklin

But You Will Never Take...OUR FREEDOM
Via Taegan Goddard, we learn The Heritage Foundation now ranks the US as below 80 in its annual survey of "Economic Freedom" scores, where 100 is apparently some sort of Galtian Utopia and 0 is We're All Karl Marx Now. Seems 1.0 out of 100 is apparently North Korea if you're looking for a reference, so now we're in the second-highest category, the dreaded "Mostly Free" nations including Denmark, the UK and Bahrain (unlike...Canada with its 80.4. Go figure that one out...the country with the quasi single-payer health care plan has more economic freedom than we do.)
