Der Robin Hood Mythos - Milton Friedmans Theorie

The video discusses Milton Friedman's perspective on state welfare programs, challenging the notion that they benefit the poor by taking from the rich. Instead, Friedman argues that these programs often favor the middle class at the expense of both the very poor and the very rich, a concept known as Director's Law. The video also examines state-funded higher education, highlighting that it primarily benefits middle- and upper-class families, while lower-income families see little advantage. The discussion concludes with a call to consider alternative ways to create equal opportunities in a democracy.
