Free To Choose 1990, Vol. 3: Freedom & Prosperity
Free To Choose Network is a nonprofit media group with a global reach and a passion for big ideas. The network originally launched with Nobel Prize-winning economist Milton Friedman’s groundbreaking 1980 television series “Free to Choose,” and still believes that people—and societies—flourish when free to shape their own lives, pursue personal goals, and make choices that reflect their values. Through smart, accessible storytelling, their programs spark conversations about freedom, responsibility, and what it means to live well.
Overview
Eastern Europe has studied the success of free markets in the United States and hopes to emulate it. Ironically, the U.S. seems drawn toward socialism—despite its long record of failure and economic collapse around the world. This program, introduced by President Ronald Reagan, explores the enduring tension between freedom and state control.
