Within the past 20 years, a massive percentage of humanity (the populations of the USSR, China, and eastern Europe) have become much freer* than they previously had been.

And have the free countries of the world become worse off as a result of the major advance in freedom resulting from the repudiation of Communism? No.

That's what your false statement would predict. But that's not what has happened, of course.

*This is true regardless of the fact that many of these peoples may not yet be as free as they should be.
