‘Index Of Personal And Economic Freedom’
The analysis’ methodology is as follows:
In overall freedom, the top five states are:
Because of the Cato Institute’s libertarian leanings, a small portion of the index considers policies surrounding gambling, LGBTQ ideology, marijuana, and tobacco. After filtering out these categories and focusing specifically on economic freedom, however, the top five states are Florida, Tennessee, New Hampshire, South Dakota, and Idaho; the bottom states are once again New York, Hawaii, California, Oregon, and New Jersey.
Evaluating the states in terms of regulatory freedom shows similar results. The top five states are Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, Idaho, and Wyoming; the bottom five are California, New Jersey, New York, Maryland, and Oregon.
Earlier in 2021, the Back-to-Normal Index — a project of Moody’s Analytics and CNN Business — began to reveal that the states that avoided or quickly removed aggressive COVID-19 responses outperformed states that lingered in reopening. The economies of South Dakota and Florida were the first to return to pre-recession strength; other top states were West Virginia, Nevada, Montana, Iowa, and Arizona.

Our boy Hogan hated Trump and he likes to suck up to Democrats.
He will be gone soon and we will probably get a Democrat of the caliber of Camala Harris.
Incompetent ,stupid, greedy, narcissist , with nothing on his/her mind but raising taxes.
Hogan did keep our taxes down, but that's about all I give him credit for.
He lost me when he attacked the man I chose to be President.

Hogan is nothing but a ScamdemocRAT @$$ kissing Swamp Rat and like you said, he'll probably be replaced with another Swamp Rat just as bad as he is or worse.
If Larry is replaced with a Dem, it will definitely be worse.
Biden’s ‘Covid-19 Winter Plan’ Ignores Science
In addition to the strange push to vaccinate school children, foist booster shots on the fully vaccinated and the counterproductive travel bans, Biden’s plan encourages businesses to ignore the legal defeats his various vaccination mandates have encountered: “The President will call on businesses to move forward expeditiously with requiring their workers to get vaccinated or tested weekly.” This won’t slow the spread of the virus—the vaccinated can contract and spread COVID-19—but it will further distort an already-disrupted job market. According to a recent Kaiser Family Foundation poll, “More than a third (37%) of unvaccinated workers (5% of adults overall) say they would leave their job if their employer required them to get a vaccine or get tested weekly.”
It has by now become obvious to all but the willfully blind that neither the President nor any of his “expert” advisors has a clue how to fulfill Biden’s 2020 promise to the voters that he would end the pandemic if elected. Moreover, the ridiculous “COVID-19 Winter Plan” highlights how little they have learned during the subsequent year. Consequently, public approval concerning Biden’s handling of the issue has plummeted and it is unlikely to recover. This will, in turn, render next year’s midterm environment even more brutal for the Democrats than is already expected. And, if the White House and congressional Democrats attempt to save themselves by fomenting fear pursuant to the Omicron variant, public reaction will not be kind. The voters are on to them, and they have had enough.

Biden Administration Celebrates Creating 2 Whole Jobs
WASHINGTON, D.C.—Members of the Biden Administration were in high spirits and celebrating the nation’s burgeoning economy after the November jobs report showed an astounding growth of two whole jobs.
“That’s TWICE as many jobs as we expected to create, double the jobs. DOUBLE. That's no joke,” said President Biden slowly, as if lost in a dream. “Republicans told me I couldn’t do it, Trump said I was a loser, Jill told me to eat all my pureed carrots, Cornpop is still talking to me right now. Shush Cornpop, quiet, you!”
Secretary of the Treasury Janet Yellen informed the press that the U.S. economy was now a raging, equitable bull, boasting that the two new jobs and two cents saved at the gas pump were all thanks to the administration’s progressive economic policies.
The two newly created jobs—Ambassador to Chinese Tech Oligarchs and Communications Go-Between for Ukrainian Oil Barons—were both filled by Hunter Biden.

White House Working With Reporters ‘To Reshape Coverage’ Of Economic Woes Under Biden As Approval Sinks: Report
Democrat President Joe Biden’s administration is reportedly meeting privately behind the scenes with journalists to change the coverage it is getting on the supply chain crisis and other economic woes that have been a serious issue for Biden as his approval ratings continue to plummet.

CNN’s media newsletter reported:
Why is the Biden administration increasing the cost of building houses?
The White House has declared that "President Biden is committed to using every tool available in government to produce more affordable housing supply as quickly as possible." Yet on Nov. 24, Biden's Commerce Department announced it was doubling duties on softwood lumber imported from Canada, from an average of 8.99% to 17.9%. Softwood lumber is a crucial material needed to build houses, and levying a large tax on imports only hurts the cause of expanding housing supply.
The NAHB — which represents homebuilders, which, naturally, have an interest in low lumber prices — is unhappy with Biden's policy. "With the nation in the midst of a housing affordability crisis, the Biden administration has moved to slap a huge, unwanted tax hike on American home buyers and renters," said NAHB Chairman Chuck Fowke in a statement. "This is the worst time to add needless housing costs onto the backs of hardworking American families."
This policy may be a large tax on foreign imports that increases the price of lumber, but the Biden administration stresses these aren't tariffs. Technically, they're doubling "antidumping and countervailing duties" on lumber imported from various Canadian provinces, and the administration claims it's doing this in the name of fairness, not crude protectionism.
"The United States' antidumping and countervailing duty (AD/CVD) laws provide U.S. businesses and workers with a transparent and internationally-accepted mechanism to seek relief from the market-distorting effects caused by unfair pricing or subsidization from a foreign trading partner," says a Commerce Department spokesperson. "AD/CVD laws are fundamentally important to a healthy global economy because they are designed to remedy the amount of unfair dumping and/or subsidization by a foreign country."
If it wasn't for double standards Progressives wouldn't not have any standards
When Trump raised tariffs on Canadian Lumber it was a bad move, but Biden does the same thing the move is ' protectionist '

Biden’s Bogus Analogy for the Supply-Chain Crisis
On the menu today: President Biden contends that not being able to find the Christmas presents you want is not a reflection of the supply-chain crisis; it’s just like the Cabbage Patch Kids or Beanie Babies running out in the ’90s. Meanwhile, news stories about shortages of items ranging from cream cheese to chicken tenders to auto parts to light bulbs to insulin pile up; it turns out that the backup at the ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles aren’t getting better, they’re just counting the ships differently; and it’s time to say farewell to Bob Dole. All of this is enough to drive you to drink, and two of my friends have just the book for that.

Biden FTC alters mission statement, raising fears of ambitious anti-business agenda
The controversial changes can be found in a draft of the FTC's strategic plan for fiscal years 2022 to 2026. The document was released last month for public comments but has thus far received little attention beyond industry groups and antitrust specialists. Feedback was due Nov. 30.
Totaling 30 pages, the proposed manifesto outlines the agency's goals and vision for the next few years, but the edits to the mission statement are what's prompting strong resistance.
The FTC's current mission statement says the agency seeks to protect "consumers and competition by preventing anti-competitive, deceptive, and unfair business practices through law enforcement, advocacy, and education without unduly burdening legitimate business activity."
However, the revised version drops the protection of "competition" from its core objectives, omits the qualifying phrase "without unduly burdening legitimate business activity," and adds "policing unfair competition."
