The foundations of economic freedom have been declining around the world for three consecutive years, according to the 2024 Index of Economic Freedom, which annually assesses the economic governance and entrepreneurial environments of 184 countries.

(The Daily Signal is the news outlet of The Heritage Foundation.)

In its 30th anniversary edition, the 2024 index provides a unique opportunity to step back and contemplate the importance of the critical interplay of freedom, opportunity, and prosperity.

That’s a feature of Obama/Biden/Gates communism.

If it is an Ipad, Gates wasn’t involved. Blame Steve Jobs who was far worse than Gates. I have never and will never own any Apple product.
