US Falls to All-Time Low in Key Freedom Index Rating – Opinion

In this episode of “Try to Control Your Shock and Amazement”…

One word: “Bidenomics.” Specifically, Biden’s economic policies and their overall impact on the U.S. economy as a whole. Welp, America, just like everything else our hapless president touches, Bidenomics has turned to — er — established a new record. This is the economic toilet.

You read it right.

Bidenomics has dragged America to an all-time low, according to the Heritage Foundation’s 2022 annual Index of Economic Freedom. As Heritage President Kevin Roberts incisively summarized, the report “paints a disturbing picture, both at home and abroad.”

Fox Business reported that Roberts stressed Roberts’ seriousness about the index.

This year’s Index of Economic FreedomBoth at home as abroad, the picture is alarming. There are serious alarming signs that the American economy is declining. This has tangible and real consequences for everyone, including low-income households and the working classes.

Here we are.

A year and a half into America’s most destructive presidency, it lost 2.7 percent from the 2021 Index of Economic Freedom. It dropped to 72.1. According to Monday’s data. Also, the U.S. fell from its highest ranking to global insignificant. 20th spot in last year’s ratings to 25th in 2022.

Fox Business notes that the Index was created in 1995 and evaluates countries in key areas such as law, rule of laws, government size and regulatory efficiency. The index also looks at specific categories, like property rights, judicial efficacy, integrity and tax burden.

“Government integrity and tax burden.” Oops. Oops! BidenRating of the Economic Freedom Index. It’s no wonder. You can see it here:

As my colleague Nick Arama reported on February 10, according to the latest Real Clear Politics Average, inflation has now hit the highest rate in 40 years, jumping 7.5 percent since last February, the biggest year-over-year increase since February 1982, more than experts had expected. Among the reasons, according to AP: “shortages of supplies and workers” as well as “heavy doses of federal aid.”

As Nick also reported in January, Biden’s response to January inflation numbers — also a 40-year low? America, you’re about to travel through another dimension — a dimension not only of delusional sight and sound but of mind. It’s a journey to a mysterious land, whose borders are ruled by imagination and deceit. That’s the signpost up ahead — your next stop, the Biden Zone!

Today’s inflation numbers show a meaningful reduction in headline inflation over last month. Slowing down price growth is something we are seeing. But there is still more work to do — I remain focused on lowering costs for families and maintaining strong economic growth.

Fox Business has more:

Americans deal currently with Inflation at its highest point in 40 yearsThe Consumer Price Index grew 7.5% by January 2019, compared to 2021.

Biden’s first year in office also saw a supply-chain crisis, Consumer confidence in the United States plunges to an 11 year low, industries rocked by vaccine and mask mandates …

The U.S. A new record was set for the national debtIt surpassed $30 Trillion in value.

Roberts put the situation in context. (Bracketed comments, emphasis and emphasis are mine.

The COVID-19 pandemic was unleashed by the Chinese Communist Party in early 2020 [which Biden and the Democrat Party steadfastly continue to ignore]One of the largest political, social and economic challenges we faced was one that has been dealt with by us. Economic turmoilThe best of the last century.

The The virus has caused severe disruption to the lives and livelihoods in hundreds of millions of people. This was not only because of the virus but also by strict lockdowns and intrusive mandates for public health..

Our economy has been further depressed by trillions in federal spending, which in turn have caused an historic rise in inflation..

Lest any liberals read this article and race to the false argument of “Yeah, but COVID’s impact on America and the economy wasn’t Biden’s fault!”, the fly in ThisIt is clear that COVID has been affected by disingenuous arguments All other countries on the planetYou can also. (See: “level playing field.”)

Finally, Roberts suggested the dumpster-fire numbers provide what amounts to a “learning experience” for Biden and his equally-clueless team of economic marauders.

There are Opportunity to address the most pressing concerns of Americans in trouble with their economyThey are where they belong Their freedom is being lost more often than their hard-earned savings..

It’s time The U.S. government must get its fiscal house in line, Unlock freedom at home and allow Americans to prosper once again with self-government.

Um, Kevin? The chances of Team Biden, Nancy Pelosi, and Chucky Schumer — with the blessing of the majority of the Democrat Party — doing AnyWhich of these? None. It is best to keep it.
