Many people think that in the US we all enjoy the same degree of freedom. There is an interesting study out that looks at Personal and Economic Freedoms state by state. The study was published through George Mason University.

http://mercatus.org/uploa...

It looks at several different freedom factors and comes up with an overall freedom number. Most of the restrictions on freedoms are a result of government regulation and laws. I was surprised to see my state Wisconsin ranked so low, but when you consider a limit on your freedom as taxes I can see why. how does your state rank and how do you feel about it?

Anything that infringes upon an individuals freedom and rights is abhorrent to me... whether it be smoking bans, gun control, confiscatory taxes, climate change scams, or social engineering schemes.

Being from MO, I saw my state didn't do too bad relative to others, but it is bad enough.

My state is one of those that are standing up for our sovereignty rights against he Federal Government's creeping usurpation of those rights, but we have much more work to do.

The rights of the individual is paramount, while group rights is a myth.

My state received a minus rating. I plan to contact my legilators and suggest some changes.
