Not so much (19/100 on Freedom House's freedom score): https://freedomhouse.org/countries/freedom-world/scores https://freedomhouse.org/countries/freedom-world/scores Prosperous? They could be doing worse, but $2785 per person per year doesn't overwhelm me with their prosperity: https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.PCAP.CD https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.PCAP.CD So... nice snark, in a very disingenuous kind of way, but not very related to reality.

- hyperbovine 5y agoNice websites, but try actually visiting Vietnam, as I have. You’ll encounter a people who are fairly prosperous by regional standards, and downright rich compared to the colonial era. Government involvement in their day to day lives is minimal. I chose my words carefully.
