From Cradle to Grave

In this thought-provoking documentary, renowned economist Milton Friedman delves into the complexities of welfare systems in both the United States and Britain. Through meticulous research and engaging interviews, he explores the notion that well-intentioned efforts to distribute wealth often lead to unintended consequences. As Friedman observes the implementation of welfare programs, he demonstrates how supply-driven initiatives can become corrupted by the use of force in collecting funds and monitoring their distribution. By analyzing the impact of these policies on individuals and society as a whole, this eye-opening film invites viewers to question the effectiveness of current welfare systems and consider alternative approaches to addressing poverty and inequality.
