How free is your state?

The state where I have lived since 1993 Virginia is rated at #13 my friend SSgt (Join to see) It has dropped by 3 out of 50 since 2014 which is not surprising since we have had liberal governors for too long.

LOL, what a joke..
"Personal Freedom" seems to be based on if you can smoke a LSD laced joint while shooting meth on the courthouse steps or not

And the lies by omission are rampant
"Personal freedom is relatively low in Texas. Cannabis laws are harsh. A single offense not involving minors can carry a life sentence."

Yes, true, if your caught transporting and distributing TWO THOUSAND POUNDS OR MORE it is state felony 5* - 99 years that no convicted criminal has ever been sentenced to.

TN dropped a couple positions in the rating. One negative aspect in their opinion is no state income tax. That’s one reason I live here, we do have a somewhat high state and local tax structure, but that is a consumption tax, which I favor. Further, we had a state healthcare plan that nearly bankrupted the state. Fortunately a Democrat Governor reformed the system. IMV, we are even better than the baseline in 2010.
