Ranking Freedom in the 50 States

Very interesting research that ranks freedom in the 50 states. Scores were calculated by quantifying and adding up social and economic (tax and regulatory) freedom. The authors found that low ranking states, such as New York, California and Illinois had experienced a net population outflow and for the most part, higher ranking states, like South Dakota and Idaho were enjoying population inflows.
