- "Parental choice, parents choosing the teachers, parents monitoring the schooling," is Friedman's answer to the problem. In almost every case, giving individuals the power to choose, to set their own course, will lead to better results than centrally planned activity. That applies to schooling and every other activity in a modern society. Introduced by David Friedman. Discussion with Gordon Tullock, University of Arizona and Henry Levin, Stanford University. © 1990 / 48 min.

Every Democrat should watch this series.
Republicans too. Both parties give gov services at reduced costs (dumping) by spending more than it taxes, thus giving people something for nothing -- though the nothing is really just debt that will compound with interest (paid to rich bankers and investors of course) and be paid for by future taxpayers.
They would watch the first 15 seconds, become triggered via their brainwashing and then give thumbs down and close browser.
@@yozonssales935 They could easily solve that problem by taxing those with money to invest.
Nah, the Democrats suffers from cognitive dissonance, just like mordern Republicans (RINOS), whom have gone through socialism schools. Both like big government spending on their pet projects.
... and rip it to pieces for being dumbed down stupid propaganda for the right wing.... Without doubt the hardcore religious institutions would takeover poor education of the poor - whilst making it much poorer by religious brainwashing.... You'd probably have an entire nation of young earth creatard zealots in a generation or twoof all-private US education.... It's bad enough as it is at the moment... Give these religious frauds pumping lies into child minds dollars and they'll take your annoying brat and turn it into a highly confused moron..... The nazti elite schools will still exist for the rich and clever kids but the vast majority will get dumber and dumber... Epsilons....
If the public schools are as good as suggested, I am sure parents will choose to send their kids to them.
If you have a two parents working day jobs to keep up should they spend even more money to educate their children?
Kim O'Brien
You mean like how government schools fail to teach our kids- passing a diversity quota up until college- yes college students under government school are illiterate, further more pay more for said books yearly as oppose to a book of their choice or as the teacher has and continue to pay more for food and so on at schools - my local school has 12$ lunches, cheapest is a salad for 6$, milk for 2$.
I’m sorry but forcing parents to pay for all that or leave their child to starve (some schools ban outside lunches) only for their kid to be illiterate isn’t a good healthy childhood, Kim and nether is raw sawdust a lunch.
Can’t send your kid to a school, let the schools compete and ether improve or flop and be replaced.
What next?
Gonna that government is shut down and the streets are being flooded by law abiding citizens to clean it up rather than random people thrown in jail for small crimes like accusations?
Also; don’t lock your kids on a room to study gender studies: it amounts to nothing but wasting their potential and tax money.
@@silent_stalker3687 In Spain the left hate the idea of parents choosing not to send their children to extracurricular activities of feminism and gender ideology.
They even said that children are not of their parents. Spain have now a SocialCommunism goverment.
@@kimobrien. You assume the cost to educate your child to school would increase. That is not a given. In fact, in nearly ever market which has been freed from government monopoly has seen productivity increase and price decrease. Education would be no different. Yet this is totally beside the point. A voucher system, one often favoured by the likes of Friedman, would simply transfer the current resources funding the public school system that are being given to schools based on the location of the students and place that funding directly (metaphorically) into the backpack of the student, allowing the parents to choose which school they believe best serves their interests in relation to their childs education. Thus, arguably, the funding and cost would not change. Most likely, costs would go down as competition for those students would increase.
I challenge your premise costs would increase in the voucher system and supplant that quality would increase, has been seen to occur and the overall effect would be the improvement of choice, improvement of education and lowering of costs. Basic economics. Choice leads to competition, which benefits the consumer, in this case, the students and parents therein.
These videos are hidden treasure
Only place socialism works is in academic theory, where utopia lives.
sadly it doesn't even work in theory. As the base premise and necessity of socialism is the use of force to first take from others in order to later do good with .the ill gotten gains. So it is not true socialism, in theory, works. It doesn't
12:15 I wonder if that kid ever knew who he was next to at that age and how he remembers profesor Friedman today.
Free to Choose is one of my favourite series of all times.
Many kids that have been failing for many years are put in a private school by desperate parents. They want the best for their kids!
They should publish the full conversation of "who protects the consumer?"
I would take my chances with a few outlying private schools teaching a non-sanctioned ideology (even horrible communism) rather than what we have now - a public school system teaching a bad state ideology.
well ..... they ARE teaching communism in the public schools. They just dont call it Communism.
@@martymcfly5423 They need to keep Horatio Alger alive. If children's education is based solely on their parents income that is an obvious class system.
Kim O'Brien
‘This is obviously a class system’
Or maybe is a lazy bitch who doesn’t want her to work for her children’s development.
Nothin is restricting your right to move to a better school system- expect for the government which demands you pay for their school system no matter wether or not you’re a part of it, or even if you’re in it, leaving it as a open market that you must pay into artificially increasing other prices... which is ‘solved’ by dropping more money on the schools which results in bloat.... and no I’m not talking g about your fat ass, business bloat: aka more government money goes to principals and so on leaving teachers on bare minimum... teachers leave and are replaced because of government, teachers are lazy they stay because of government and so on.
Your children are illiterate; the teachers stay because of government.
Yeah your illiterate crotch fruit isn’t going to Harvard after kindergarten, Karen and it doesn’t have anything to do with class, more about the drool stains he leaves in his wake.
I always said the education as the most important investment. Through my years, I was right.
You're absolutely right. These days we have indoctrination and you see how that has turned out.
@@B.I.R.T.H.D.A.Y.B.O.Y. watch to Spain. Feminism have taken away the innocence presumption from men. They're teaching young girls in elementary schools to hate boys because their gender.
29:40 He is so proud of their new language standard, but has nothing to say to the arguments Milton Friedman puts forward.
David is the son of two great parents: Rose and Milton. History says that passing on a legacy from parent to child is difficult. Child trying to blaze their own trail. Bill Graham and Ronald Wilson Reagan. Graham's son succeeded while Reagan's as of this comment has failed (Ron jr)
I wish that school band had tuned their instruments before playing Land Of Hope And Glory. :-/
Just because a bureaucrat makes it a mandate that that a student be proficient in a Foreign Language does not mean they really are. Who sets the proficiency test? The school! Really, I doubt the schools do better than a student really intensely interested in the topic!
Another thing, say you have someone born in South who moves to North. They feel lesser qualified for jobs in North, because the education quality, competitive environment is different. Obviously you drive and ambitions will eventually help you to succeed. In any case, we create issues, where for the rest of our lives we work on these issues. What qualifies you again, the University that provides with enough knowledge to be able to prove yourself, no matter where you come from, from poor family, from South, from uneducated parents.
11:46 that accent, wow it’s crazy how a particularly small area ie: the Bronx can have such a distinguishable accent from the rest of society. 🤔
This's a repetition of the of one of the episodes of the 1980s series
Common core is here and it stinks! I have to as a smart parent reeducate my kids. Joke is I recall enough to teach them from stuff I learned over 25 years ago. So why did they mettle with something working ok?
Perhaps policemen and metal detectors at school entrances was not such a bad idea
The Founding Fathers believed the success of a democracy depended upon an educated nation. When you want everyone to participate in something, the free market is one of the mechanisms that ensures not everyone will participate. The MO of the Free Market is to create value, and the way to do that is through exclusion, which is what we have today in our education system. We have a low standards education for free by the government, and high standards privatized or exclusive public system in affluent towns. Even Friedman finds fault with the current system, yet its the product of the Free Market.
Great video
@15:40 So Important!
Look at today's curriculum in 2020: Still no financial education!!
@17:54 So what you're saying is that you object to your demands being met by the market...
American Government says "No man shall go hungry". Say, maybe we have enough land per person to make this happen. So, basically if we depopulate there will even be more land per person. And so each industry decided to depopulate their own way. Medical industries, Hospitals, Lead Paints, Food industries*. Say they all believe in infrastructure and say, you American voters are too small for us. What they miss is that they also Vote, which means they eat what we eat and drink what we drink. So they are the ones making a difference, not the Government. Say, a doctor coming up with new way to perform a surgery, whole foods, better paint. Who came up with this? The people. So really Government's job is to provide safety, which they slacked to do, by not coming with enough regulations that provide safe environment for workers, and we all know what happens when worker's rights are violated!
Say, a bank hire a new employee. They want to keep the employees they have hired, even if a better one comes along, which is wrong, and even the employee realizes this. What makes one employee better from another is not the experience. Each person derives different knowledge from work environment, some continue with MBA to have a certification and refine the tools they will eventually use. Like the farmer studying economics... and now it all makes sense. Leaving the employee that is not so good and not taking the better one, they are not making a favor to the one staying at the bank. He could benefit by changing his job and acquiring knowledge that is more proper to his mindset, that means some other entity is losing his or her as an employee. Basically exchange of employees. Universities have done a great job at referring people to the right directions. Say, the person lost his or her job and would like to explore what's best for him. What they do first, go back to school to further their education - the ideal situation. Say, certification programs. What are they, if not referrals. No imagine, the banks has done a mistake, does not mean they cannot rehire you after you getting certification that perhaps is one step above. Say you are an accountant, or a financial analyst, investment analyst. Knowledge is an observation, which come with learning at job. As far as certifications, it is a form of proving that you have learnt something. Now, Universities might be against this, because this can disqualify their students, who believe they do not need certifications to prove their knowledge. And so you end up with certified person having better chances to get employed, which is wrong, because there are a lot of talented students who need to get a job right after school. This is all costly, and unfortunately who ends up paying, the bright students, who naturally do not necessarily agree with Government's repressions, thinking that it makes them stupid. I mean, simple example is message therapist's certification. Does it make her a better employee? It makes her a proper one, but so does your employment history, which there is no way to bypass that.
Excelente!!
i've come a long way in these series. But why does david speak like Milton thou
Because its milton
Say who is your typical loser? The person, who is confused. With the latest administration there were more people confused than ever before. America creates more confusions by not providing free tuition than any other country. One, you have to be able to pay for it, second qualify yourself after graduation. University probably does not want to tell an 18 year old that she can't attend their University because she can't pay for it. It is simply not fair. One, you are telling her she comes from poor family, therefore shall end up poor. Second, not everyone is strong enough to fight for their rights. Like I believe my right is an access to free tuition. Basically the natural feeling that if you live in the system, you have equal rights to use everything that system has to offer. America says, education is not part of the system, so we force you go to school, but we don't force you to continue your education at a University and where that came from? The university itself. Why does University cost so much, that the Government says I am not responsible for its operations, which means your taxes will not bail it out, and you are on your own.

When I was in college, many freshman took the school money excess from the loans and bought cars. They did not understand that the money was supposed to last the whole year and also be used on other things like BOOKS! Those fools lasted 2 terms. First term to get all F's. Second term on academic probation, they flunked again and that was that. But the school enjoyed making a mint off the fools. And I have to wonder if they were then admitted to other schools so they could then repeat leaving for free!
My experience (1970's) was that MIT controlled the work study jobs, the loans and scholarships. They then made awards based upon expected parental income contributions. The only students with cars came from the upper class, local commuters, grad students, and those considered emancipated minors or over 21.
45:33 "inane"? Oh, like your ridiculous, nonsensical position on improving education in the US?
I agree you can not rely on the two party system because they are inherently pro capitalist. Instead we as workers should bulid our own oragniazations like unions and creating our own political party. As far Friedman's claim of capitalism creating freedom he has to be one of the biggest fools of all time or a liar. He went down to Chile after the coup where the price of milk climbed and the workers were muzzled by the Pinochet dictatorship. Nevertheless somehow he needed to somehow reclaim this idiocy that capitalism creates freedom not dictatorship. That kind of capitalism fought with feudal lords who are long gone expect for those kept on in Europe as figure heads that could easily be replaced as a plaster bust which would be just as useful.
Kim O'Brien but which country is richer, South Korea, the capitalist one, or North Korea, the socialist one?
After reading your rant, one word comes to mind ... twit.
You’re a fucking idiot
anti stuff Who hurt you?
