Tell me this: how much economic freedom is enjoyed by a single mum who works two jobs at poverty wages just to keep the lights on, has no access to healthcare, has to decide between groceries and medication, can’t get paid time off when her kid is ill, and hasn’t had a pay rise in three years?
As GUBU said, in capitalistic societies, economic freedom is only experience by the owners of capital, not by the people who actually do the work which generates that capital.

Economic freedom is essentially defined as the "rule of law", that is, that there are no rulers above the law. Read up about it on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Index_of_Economic_Freedom
No one has EVER defined economic freedom as the ‘rule of law’.
