George Leef’s November review of two publications that focus on economic freedom and prosperity has been picked up from The Freeman and published in The Public Interest Institute’s Facts and Opinions. In his piece, Leef noted that both Economic Freedom of the World and Index of Economic Freedom link economic freedom with standards of living around the world.
