The Economy: Give it Freedom, or You Might Give it Death

   Freedom of religion, freedom of speech . . . freedom of economy. That last one never quite made it into the Bill of Rights. Nor has it been protected as well as many of our other freedoms.
   "One out of three jobs requires a government license -- government permission just to work," Sen. Mike Lee said Thursday.
   "And, once you have a job, there are thousands of pages of, 'Don't do this. Not like that. That's not approved." Lee said.
   Regulations stifle job creation, and enterprising efforts. In a Nation that stands upon freedoms, it is ironic that America's economy seems to have as many restrictions placed upon it as does that of any nation in the world.
   Give it freedom, or you might give it death. Maybe not a complete death, but America's economy will never know the full life it could have unless it is freed from government regulations.
