About this Episode
Thomas Sowell said the welfare system pays people to fail. Dennis Prager asked where all the leftist hospitals are. Milton Friedman said a society that chooses equality over freedom ends up with neither.
Today, I play clips from Sowell, Prager, Friedman, and a Laura Ingraham conversation with Mark Meadows, and I build the case for why limited government is a moral question and not only an economic one. I get into why pouring money into failing schools makes them worse, how government programs crowd out the church and private charity, and why the system young people call capitalism is already shot through with government intervention.
