Heritage Foundation's Index of Economic Freedom Module
"Rapid expansion of government, more than any market factor, appears to be responsible for flagging economic dynamism. Government spending has not only failed to arrest the economic crisis, but also—in many countries—seems to be prolonging it. The big-government approach has led to bloated public debt, turning an economic slowdown into a fiscal crisis with economic stagnation fuelling long-term unemployment."
EDWIN J. FEULNER, Wall Street Journal

The Heritage Foundation, in collaboration with the Wall Street Journal, track the march of economic freedom around the world with the Index of Economic Freedom. Heritage Foundation Research Fellow James M. Roberts explored the study's results, the causes and Denmark's performance.
