That some of the wealthiest countries in the world are former colonies??

(US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, just to name a few.)

Clearly, colonialism is not what causes nations to be poor.

What makes nations poor is a lack of economic freedom and lack of protection of property rights. This is why nations like Russia, China and Zimbabwe are so poor.

The Cato institute did a study not long ago. They ranked nations by "economic freedom", which included such things as tax rates, regulation, protection of contract rights, protection of property rights, etc.

What they found, not surprisingly, is that the nations with the highest economic freedom scores were among also the wealthiest nations, and the nations with the lowest economic freedom scores were the poorest.

Then they compared those numbers to Human Rights Watch's evaluation of human rights. They found that those nations which had the best economic freedom records also had among the best human rights records, and the nations with the nations with the worst economic freedoms records also had the worst human rights records.

This shouldn't be surprising. Governments that believe in economic freedom generally are not oppressive.

The Left of course, which lionized and then apologized for Stalin, Mao, Ho, Castro, etc., wants to squelch economic freedom in favor of more oppressive state run economies.
