"According to a new study released by the Mercatus Center of George Mason University, some of the most liberal U.S. states rank lowest when it comes to personal freedom."

"The freest states are New Hampshire, Colorado, and South Dakota, which together achieve a virtual tie for first place. All three states feature low taxes and government spending -- and middling levels of regulation and paternalism."

"New York is the least overall free by a considerable margin, followed by New Jersey, Rhode Island, California, and Maryland. "
