Economic Freedom Is The Secret

SEE HERE  Walter Williams asks why immigrants from impoverished nations do so much better when they come to the United States.  The answer he gives is interesting.  It isn't so much the kind of government as the kind of economic freedom that they enjoy.  We are striving to destroy our economic freedom by imposing more and more senseless and overreaching government regulation.  The results are going to be the United States starting to look a lot more like those nations that these immigrants fled.  That's not the American way and we ought to get that through our heads and turn this oppression around.
