Economic Freedom in 2016

___The Heritage Foundation published its 2016 Index of Economic Freedom on 1 February. The categories are:

Rule of Law: Property Rights; Freedom from Corruption

Limited Government: Government Spending; Fiscal Freedom

Regulatory Efficiency: Business Freedom; Labor Freedom; Monetary Freedom

Open Markets: Trade Freedom; Investment Freedom; Financial Freedom

___The United States moved from 12th to 11th when Denmark moved down a full point while the U.S. only moved down 0.8. You should hold the celebration and the champagne since we are still behind Chile and Estonia!
