Coming from the Koch foundation, I doubt freedom to have unrestricted access to family planning, birth control, or affordable health care will not influence the index positively.

I have a feeling that this skews toward "corporate freedom," as South Dakota is very corporate-friendly. On one hand, this helps extended family farms that like to operate as corporations. On the other, we are a small, but thriving haven for shell companies, and in large businesses, management tends to wield an over-sized amount of power over labor. Being "free" hasn't seemed to help the folks in Oglala Lakota County - the poorest county in the U.S.

Indiana is free? I though Pence supposedly ruined all that.

However, a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.

It's free if you are the Koch brothers.
