Milton Friedman Speaks: Equality and Freedom in the Free Enterprise System
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
True equality means opportunity, not outcomes. Dr. Milton Friedman argues that trying to enforce equal results undermines liberty, dulls incentives and destroys both fairness and freedom—turning ideals into tools for centralized control.
