The country that was once said to be number one in everything has fallen far from the top. These are rankings of the world economies in categories related to starting a business. America was known as land of entrepreneurs, but no more. We need new business to generate an economic recovery. How are we supposed to be in a recovery showing numbers like this? Tax special note of America being 72 in paying taxes. Our government takes more money from us than almost 40% of all the other countries ranked here. Is that freedom?
