Life expectancy is almost 20 years longer (79.12 year) in countries with the most economic freedom (Hong Kong, Singapore, New Zealand, Chile, Switzerland, U.S.) than the life expectancy (59.4 years) in those countries with the least economic freedom (Zimbabwe, Myanmar, Angola, Chad, Congo), according to the Economic Freedom of the World 2009 Report from Cato.
