This is so tough!

On the one hand free markets tend to make everyone richer

And controlled markets may have less inequality but tend to have lower overall quality of life

Where on the spectrum of Free & Controlled would you place the US in its current state?

This chart by the Heritage Foundation is telling:

Enormous policy challenges undermine long-term U.S. economic competitiveness. Big-government policies have eroded limits on government, public spending continues to rise, and the regulatory burden on business has increased. Restoring the U.S. economy to “free” status will require significant changes to reduce the size and scope of government. Over the years, unchecked deficit spending and government debt have accelerated, and inflation has undercut economic livelihood. Uncertainty and poor policy choices have left the U.S. economic outlook in flux.

We are probably freer than anyone has been in history

Frankly we’re at an inflection point
