About this episode
For over 25 years, The Heritage Foundation’s Index of Economic Freedom has been a mainstay in policy discussions in Washington D.C. and around the world. It is a clear example of why free markets and liberty matter when it comes to building a flourishing society. This week, Nick Loris explains a new Heritage report that spells out what the US needs to do to not only increase its ranking, but also to increase the quality of life for our families. Given the rebuilding that must take place after COVID-19, now is the time to implement these ideas of more freedom and less government.
