This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Freedom comes with a price, more regulations do not necessarily make you more free. I'd love if we had a mix of European social safety nets.
And since you wanted to dig out some freedom indexes. Here's just the first one from google.

Like it or not. The USA is a very free country.
That's why it's on number... 17. Lmao.
Yea... above a ton of euro countries....
So? Still number 17😂.
According to your own link, the USA is not even in the top 10, which are actually all in Europe.
Yea forgot how Iceland and NZ are in Europe.... USA is above a the majority of Europe...so ..
Well, its a good job that no one is claiming the fact that Europeans are more free is due to there being more regulations then, isn't it? Otherwise that point might have been relevant and not just mildness regurgitation of propaganda.
