Yeah it's the same with the race debate, depressing that these arguments have to be reargued for in every generation, there is no sense in which we seem to learn.
It's like watching a master tennis player deal with every situation, so composed, so assured, there is no hesitation or doubt, it reminds me of Hitchens when he was at his soaring best, it's almost like the other person isn't there, they are just in complete control of the situation, he's amazing to watch.
Amazing. Can you imagine in 2022 3 people with such different points of view seating down on the same table as gentlemen or women to discuss in a respectful way?
No m0ney in it, gotta love cr@pitalism, I suppose Milton would say its the market correcting itself, that's why we can't have nice things, we can have idiocracy though, and a mass insane asylum party
Thanks for posting this beauty - British vs Milton Friedman. Also, pretty cool that Maggie Thatcher solved one of the biggest problems facing them at the time - labour unions.
Several factors made it possible for the Thatcher government to take on the unions and win, which were not there before. 1) The decline of industries in which the unions had their strongest presence, and associated unemployment. 2) The actions of the unions in the winter of 1978-79 had begun to turn public opinion away from the general sympathy for trades unions which had predominated. Even many non-militant members of unions could see merit in some kind of reform. 3) The political opposition was divided, the SDP taking some 10% of the Parliamentary Labour Party with it in 1981. 4) This one is perhaps more subjective, but the unions themselves where nowhere near as well-led as they had been. The Miner's strike of 1984-85 being the supreme example. Badly timed, badly selected arguments (could anyone consider saving all uneconomic pits to be wise?).
Enoch Powell was the first person,even before Milton Friedman,to make the connection to do with the money supply.Professor Powell=RIP.A brilliant politician .The greatest Politician and Classicist of his generation.Spoke 14 languages and was an interpreter in Urdu.Brilliant man of integrity who represented all his constituents.
I wish i was born in the 1960's or somethin, yet i'm the madman cause i cant stand the modern slop that passes for culture and civilization, our society is so degenerate it's really ...too much sometimes, but every era has the same problems, human nature is not a pretty thing, that's where milton is right, where's i BELIEVE he's wrong, if i can roll back my arrogance of presumption for one moment, I will preface it is my BELIEF, what he propose would not solve the fundamental problem, kind of like a surgery on somebody with late stage agressive c@ncer, i dont think it will work, (our cowboy) western s0c1ety has reached very high levels of irational dangerous levels of collective insanity, is what i believe,something it is prone to do, like hypnotized chickens, the masses have been duped by it's leaders, on that point i can agree with Miltons diagnosis, but i believe that feature is built in to the human brain, it is naturally illogical, dont ask me to explain, its too deep to go into, i have a high iq, just take my word bro
70's looks so good. (No invasive techn0l0gy.) 20th century was peak (and decline) of civilizati0n. (the s@x0n system is now in disintegrati0n ...R.I.P 1776 - ????) We live in dangerous new technological powered state era, with it's unsettling potentialities. I agree with milton that freedom is in the balance, but i disagree with the solutions, the c0rporati0n is married to the state, politicians are bought and paid for, dont kidd your self on that issue, the problems run deep, and its more complex than lobbying, human nature is more complex than Milton would have you believe, a free enterprise boom' is not gonna solve the 21st century predicament, not unless its has some r@dica| dimensions to it
These documentaries are invaluable now that history is repeating itself.

Minimum wage isn't a good idea to begin with
