  • "Milton Friedman argues that quality of opportunity is the key to the vitality of free markets and the preservation of personal freedoms. He explains that although all men may be created equal, this does not mean that everyone will have equal talents or income. He claims that it is the poorer members of society who benefit most from freedom and who seldom see any gain from government programs justified in their name. Following the documentary, Dr. Friedman has a conversation with Michael Kinsley of the New Republic and Thomas Sowell of the Hoover Institution. They debate the desirability and effectiveness of such government initiatives as welfare programs, Head Start, student loans, and the graduated income tax."
  • "Milton Friedman questions the current interpretation of the Declaration of Independence phrase "created equal," and argues that the use of talents for personal benefit in turn benefits all. In a debate that follows a group including academics and a former diplomat discuss Friedman's views."
