Our friend Mary Katharine Ham, who’s fond of peeking in the Locker Room, also looked into the differences in economic freedom between the UK and the US. She found that there were only three areas of difference: Government Intervention, Foreign Investment, and Informal Market. The US rated slightly better in Government Intervention, but worse in Foreign Investment and slightly worse in Informal Market.
