What to look for in a country.

Natan Sharanky said those in the free world should ask the following questions of other nations.

1. Can people in that country speak their minds?
2. Can they publish their opinions?
3. Can they practice their faith?
4. Can they learn the history and culture of their people?

Good questions in judging the level of freedom in a nation. Probably also a blue print for things that need to be crushed if you're hoping to be the next authoritarian dictator.
