According To The Annual “Index On Economic Freedom,” produced by The Heritage Foundation, the United States now ranks 8th, just behind Canada.
That’s a drop of two full points since last year, and the largest drop of all nations - in overall economic freedom.
Socialism does not work.
It robs the fruits of labor from one citizen to fill the pockets of another.
It kills incentive.
It demoralizes industrious people.
And it leads to misery.
Socialism combined with Fascist Corporatism
(as in the current trend toward Public/Private Partnerships)
creates government-sanctioned monopolies,
giving the corporations the reins of power over government
at the expense of the people.
That is the model America has now chosen to follow.
The United States is on a path to destruction. In one year it’s dropped two more points toward totalitarianism.
The people feel the pain and are furious about it.
And yet, the Obama Administration still thinks the anger and protests are just false products of the Republicans and Fox News. Astonishing.
