The average Canadian household is now more than $40,000 richer than the average U.S. household.

This, according to Environics Analytics WealthScapes data cited in a Globe and Mail article

The average Canadian household was worth worth $363,202 in 2011 compared to $319,970 for the average U.S. household.

Canada is also economically freer than the United States. According to the 2012 Index of Economic Freedom put out by The Heritage Foundation, Canada (often thought to be more socialist than the U.S.) ranks as the world’s sixth freest economy, while the U.S. has plummeted to 10th on the index, ranking behind such counties as Ireland, Mauritius, Chile, New Zealand, Swtzerland, and Australia.

Hong Kong (now part of Communist China) and Singapore rank #1 and #2 on the Index of Economic Freedom.

Historically, the United States has ranked in the top three on this index.

Obama promised change and to “fundamentally transform” America  . . . and he delivered.

“Change has come to America,” he boasted.

Well, that’s certainly true – disastrous change.

The question is: Can America ever recover to its former status as the world’s #1 economic superpower?

Romney should be rolling out new ads on this theme.

The ad should say: “Obama has wrecked America. Now we’re not even the most prosperous country in North America, thanks to ObamaCare and Obamanomics.”

Romney should use this opportunity to teach America how free-enterprise works and why Obama is an enemy of free-enterprise . . . and why, if we continue to follow Obama down the Socialist road he’s taking us, it won’t be long before we become a banana republic.

Don’t be surprised to see a big migration now from the U.S. to Canada.

But will Canada want us there?
