    Hong Kong named world's freest economy

    Hong Kong has been named the world's freest economy for the 15th year in a row.

    Btw, Hong Kong has Universal Health Care.

    The US slid one notch to 6th place.

      * Top 5 free market economies
      - all have universal health care
      1. Hong Kong
      2. Singapore
      3. Australia
      4. Ireland
      5. New Zealand

      * according to an annual report released Tuesday by the conservative Heritage Foundation and the Wall Street Journal

      The Heritage Foundation is an American conservative think tank based in Washington, D.C.

      The foundation took a leading role in the conservative movement during the presidency of Ronald Reagan, whose policies drew significantly from Heritage's policy study Mandate for Leadership.

                  Report back to us your findings? All the real conservatives in the other healthcare thread are eager to know how 5 other countries can have a more free market economy than the U.S.

                          US never truly had a free market economy.

                          US business, industry, markets, etc are among the most highly regulated and controlled in the world.

                              Yet it ranks 6th, odd considering what you said.
