    What’s funny is, they keep calling themselves the ‘leader of the free world’, but in 2024, according to the Cato Human Freedom Index, which measures personal, civil, and economic freedoms, the US ranked 17th. Canada? 11th. And this was not taking into account Trump’s second term. Most of the countries in the top 10 were all European, the countries that the US likes to call ‘socialist welfare states’.
