same. he's a genius! same with Thomas Sowell

With you

You are not alone! Don’t you ever let them make you feel alone!

​@@gabebautista6521 agree 100%. I wager the proportion of the population that listens to this and understands is relatively the same now as then. The only difference is the state media used to publish this when it was no threat, while now as we suffer the fate predicted by this video the ideas are ignored.

With you 100%.

1976

Say it again Mr daxdigitalus? So all will hear! Bravo! How sad that by 2017, there should be a retrograde ideology. This is why Mr. Marx would roll in his grave... The broader politic [yes, even left] simply turn over to micro-Kantian socialism; that is to say, racist/nationalist/collectivist political movements are all 'the rage.' Very hip indeed. 13:28 "This isn't a strange road..." etc.. Friedman was an excellent economist, optimistist, rhetorical genius, and his smile is so disarming.

The Left always make arguments that everyone else knew about four generations before. Today's left love talking abut special interest groups, corporate welfare, too big to fail bail outs, socialism for the rich Etc ... like it's all a big revelation and super intelligent news that only they are privy to. Friedman was talking about this all along and pointed out that it's all cyclical anyway. The Labour Party in the UK, 1945, were introducing ideas that Bismark supported in 1869 and Bismark was accused of being a reactionary by his own Kaiser back then. The British Conservative Party supported these ideas back in the 19th century also. Marx referred to these ideas as Reactionary ideas, like Christian Socialism, Feudal Socialism and Petite-Bourgeois Socialism in 'The Communist Manifesto' 1848. The Left now claim it all as their ideas now. 19th century reactionary programmes are radical progressive left-wing ideas in 21st century, Pffff.

Can't be 1956. Probably 1976

daxdigitalus It's 1976 or 77 Carter is President

+gurugeorge Well the free market should come in if people wanted to see such a program, theoretically, to fill the gap in the market. But in the UK you do have programs like Question Time or Newsnight... This particular program is similar to what Charlie Rose does in the US... (Incidentally all those are government funded programs, BBC and PBS)

***** Interestingly, in the early days, Channel 4, while ultimately responsible to a public organization, was self-funding at the time when it had programs like the one I mentioned, and lots of minority and quite left-wing political programming. It was cheaply-made stuff, but varied, and some was very interesting - and quite careless of censorship. It became more "commercial" (in the sense of having more cookie-cutter, mainstream programming) when it came under the direct control of a more well-endowed, purpose-built public service broadcasting corporation. The history is complicated, but as with many things, it's basically the gummint's fault :)

thanks goodness for Basic Economics channel so we can enjoy and learn from these great videos!

@@KidMillions podcasts took up your challenge, seriously.

8 years later we are worse than ever. Not only in the US, but everywhere in the west.

And how the picture stutters periodically like at 5:34.

well share it widely!!!

Lol, he has been old since the 1950s... but he still made it until 2006! What a beast

Jews don't stew

what i was thinking as well.

Except in his eyes. His eyes were always young with a twinkle that indicated a mind active and searching.

You must be American...good grief.

Yes, very well spotted.

If only there was hope for a new bioshock game. How on earth can people let a franchise like that just moulder away and die?

lol you caught that huh? had to change my name on here when I argue with sjw's they always bring up my ethnicity but now they bring it up assuming I'm white can never win ha

That's really depressing to hear yet another example of why the world of reason is ending.

He doesn't ask Hefner if he wants to be a slacker for the rest of his life.

so true!

There's an interview of Ayn Rand on KZfaq from the late 60's or early 70's, she said at the time that the Universities were taken over by the Left.

Thanks for being part of this channel, cheers!

On a gov website, I read 23%. But I checked historical data, and it lists it at 30 something in the 70s, and almost 40 in 2020. The difference, I think, is state spending.

THE OPEN MIND Host: Richard D. Heffner Guest: Milton Friedman Title: “A Nobel Laureate on the American Economy” VTR: 5/31/77

While not completely true, for the sake of argument if we say it’s true China is currently subsiding the cost of many products for other countries such as Electric cars, solar panels etc. Western firms may have closed partly because of unfair competition but China is indebted today as a result

keep sharing this video so it gets more views!

Milton Friedman was born old. Was always old. He talked old and looked old when he was 3! Lol! He's excellent...a rarity!
