Episode 138 – Free To Choose 1980 – Created Equal (Podcast)

The Declaration of Independence says, ”all men are created equal.” Milton Friedman explains that this does not mean all persons should or will have equal talents or income. Equal opportunity to better oneself and the right to personally benefit from the gains realized are consistent with freedom.

Today’s podcast is “Created Equal,” volume five of the ten-part public television series Free To Choose. Listen now.
