“Below are the 10 factors used for determining a county’s ‘Freedom’

Business Freedom
Trade Freedom
Fiscal Freedom
Freedom from Government
Monetary Freedom
Investment Freedom
Financial Freedom
Property rights
Freedom from Corruption
Labor Freedom

Note that ‘Trade Freedom’ is but only ONE of the 10 listed, yet free traders will beat others on the head over the term freedom, while relying on this as a foundation. I don’t agree with that at all. That’s the stinger. If my nation will drop it’s standard of living in order that Bolivia’s Degrees of Freedom gets closer to ours, I’ll throw a flag up.”

Worth repeating as often as possible!!

If I could, I’d put the whole thing in my tagline.

So not only do you believe in the fallacy that "the private sector has hijacked our economy," you also believe economics is a zero-sum game.
