Index of Economic Freedom

Very interesting article from The Heritage Foundation.

And a nice snippet on the US, full of those nice forebodings here:

Weaknesses remain in fiscal freedom and government size. Total government spending equals more than a third of GDP. Corporate and personal taxes are high and increasingly uncompetitive. In 2008, the sub-prime mortgage crisis had far-reaching effects, and the government's unprecedented interventionist measures could severely undermine economic freedom in the future.
