Milton Friedman Speaks: Is Tax Reform Possible?
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
Is tax reform possible? Not without tackling the real problem: government spending. Dr. Milton Friedman argues that cosmetic tweaks to tax code miss the deeper issue; without structural budget controls, taxes will always rise and reform efforts will fall short of their promises.
