Personal freedom only accounts for 29% of the calculation
WTF
Personal freedoms should account for 66%
Personal freedom being dismissed:
Will HEAVILY favor states attempting to lure businesses because their economies suck
SO they eliminate any competitive hurdle
Which will then favor sh!t states that build nothing / Design nothing / provide nothing
and are overall very undesirable
These are the ONLY things that matter / Personal Freedom
The utter desperation and tactical maneuverings of the state are meaningless
