Who Protects the Consumer?

The film delves into the complex world of government agencies, their intentions to safeguard consumers, and the unforeseen consequences that follow. It reveals how these regulatory bodies, initially established with goodwill, often infringe upon individual liberties and hinder advancement by becoming de facto representatives of the very industries they are supposed to regulate. Through the lens of economic thinker Friedman, we explore the seemingly chaotic nature of the free market and its ultimate ability to ensure consumer interests. The documentary engages viewers in a thought-provoking discourse on the balance between government intervention and consumer protection, shedding light on this critical issue that affects us all.
