What states are most, least free?

A unique index published by the Cato Institute ranks states by how free they are based on weighted criteria. "Freedom in the 50 States" ranks the states using dozens of measures for each of three major categories: fiscal policy, regulatory policy, and personal freedom.

The authors seek to improve their methodology with every publication, refining the methodology to render a result as close to what their notions of "freedom" are.

I’ve been dry for quite awhile too. This was back in the late 70’s and probably has changed. You couldn’t even buy rubbing alcohol on sunday back then.

He’s my neighbor. :-)

Seriously, I’ve retired that name because it hasn’t really fit me for a while. Meanwhile, this name is actually what some of my neighbors call me. :-)

Several people have private messaged me on this. I thought I’d mentioned it in a post, but it looks like I only told people privately. So here it is, publicly. :-)
