Long a symbol of economic prosperity, America for the first time no longer
ranks among the top 10 free nations of the world, according to The 2005
Index of Economic Freedom, just released by the Heritage Foundation and
the
Wall Street Journal.

I saw the report, and was surprised by it. One has to wonder about a
report
that puts the UK and Denmark above the US in economic freedom.

And what would one wonder about? You know, there are still real
conservatives in the US, most of whom are appalled by the Bush
administration's economic policies, among other things.
