Study shows America's most liberal states rank least free
Topics: Political News and commentariesIt should be no surprise to the center-right that a new study released by the Mercatus Center of George Mason University shows that some of our most liberal states rank at the bottom in a measure of personal freedom. It should also be no surprise that some of the most Republican states are the most free and all the least free are Democrat states (for example - New York is by far the least free state).
As Warner Todd Huston points out in his post at STACLU, rankings were determined by measuring the personal and economic freedoms of the citizens of the various states coupled with the size and cost of government, education regulations, Second Amendment restrictions, as well as the amount of interference via regulations and police agencies on the populace.
