Title: Freedom in the 50 States

Link (http://freedominthe50states.org/)

It's an interactive map that rates the states by how free they are. Apparently, the state with the most freedom is North Dakota, and the state with the least freedom is California. The site also has an interactive function that allows you to ranks states based on what freedoms are important to you. :arrr: It also offers policy recommendations. :tard:

  Massachusetts is ranked 30th. I was happy until I remembered that means 30th out of 50, not 100.  :tard:

  Lit would rant unproductively against the very idea of a state, before cashing his government check!  :arrr:

Connecticut is 40 :zombiefuck:   Some is from the many restrictions they put on what you can do with your own property which really irritates me.  Eminent domain is also big here in the land of Kelo.   I had wanted to move to New Hampshire(number 4) when I first got married but jobs up there are not always so easy to get
