Illinois Is One Of The Top 5 Worst States for Freedom In The United States

Illinois Is One Of The Worst States in the Nation When It Comes To Freedom!

A report by "Freedom in the 50 States" shows that the Land of Lincoln is in the TOP 5 Worst States in the nation in terms of overall freedom. See below:



The reports states the following (in-part):

"Illinois is one of the least free states to live in from the perspective of regulatory policy and personal freedom, but on fiscal policy it ranks in the middle of the pack. However, there are still some fiscal issues in dire need of improvement."

"Government spending has been increasing over time, however, and certain categories, such as employee retirement, are way out of line with national norms. The main fiscal problem is debt: state and local debt make up 25.1 percent of personal income."

"As for real property rights protection, Illinois’s score is mediocre.  The state has failed to reform eminent domain significantly, and there are no state-level restrictions on regulatory takings.  As for occupational freedom, the state is below average, and the quality of its court system is well below average—and dropping."



"In the personal freedom dimension, Illinois has the sixth harshest gun control laws in the country."

"Its asset forfeiture laws are also among the worst in the nation."
