		"Free to Choose" (1980) is a great companion to Friedman's ten hour video presentation by the same name that appeared on PBS in the early eighties to rave reviews and some of the highest ratings in PBS history.
		The Friedman's brilliance in FTC is to continually demonstrate how government control inhibits personal freedom, whereas free market capitalism is what results when individuals have the right to "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness".
		He is the father of school vouchers, to give poor Americans the opportunity to choose the schools their children attend (this is described in FTC chapter six).

	Free To Choose by Milton and Rose Friedman
		Free To Choose has a good claim in this respect arriving as it did in 1980.
		It's as clear an exposition as you're likely to find of the free market economics that influenced Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan, leading to one of the greatest economic booms in history and arguably spelling the end of communist power.
		However the main (and more important) theme of Free To Choose is a critical look at the road that the free market idea has travelled since it's first clear exposition in 1776 by Adam Smith in the remarkable book, The Wealth of Nations.

		Free to Choose is a great education in economics, history, and politics, which perfectly balances between scholarship and popular education.
		Because the conservative believes that society has the right to choose its moral framework and enforce it upon individuals, and that individuals have no right to object to that framework (since society is primary), conservatives find themselves defending countries which assert a fundamental right to rule without outside interference.
		The view that society may legitimately �choose� to deprive individuals of their rights, is incompatible with libertarianism, because it overlooks the fundamental libertarian view that, again, society can have no rights that the individual does not (or cannot) give it.

		This new edition of Free to Choose celebrates the tenth anniversary of what has, by now, become a modern classic.
		Free to Choose was translated and read from China to Eastern Europe, from Britain and the U.S. to Latin America--and its influence is to be found everywhere.
		In the early 1980s, it seemed Utopian and unrealistic, but as the Friedmans point out in their new foreword, world events have rushed ahead with such speed and violence that it seems like a practical blueprint for change today.

	Life Enhancement:: Free to Choose - Apr. 2005
		Indeed, a free society is a choice society, wherein government does not dictate personal choice or restrict choice nor does it hinder the economic freedom to deliver as much variety as consumers desire and are willing to pay for.
		Not surprisingly, when a free society is perceived as a society that is free to choose, where everyone gets to select what they want without hindrance, there is widespread popular support.
		His book Free to Choose is written very clearly so that you don’t need to have an economics background to understand it.

	Are Those With NBD Really "Free to Choose"?
		Your daughter is an adult, and she should be free to decide how she wants to live her life -- including whether she wants to be involved in a treatment program.
		Then it dawned on me that she and a number of like-minded people assume that those with a severe mental illness have the "mental capacity" to make wise decisions about the state of their mental health, their need for treatment, and a whole host of other issues critical to their well being.
		Thus, state laws which continue to provide the right (for those who "lack insight" as to their illness) to refuse treatment are not in the best interest of that person nor society.

		To say, however, that a choice is a free one is not to endorse it as good or wise.
		And to say that their choice is a free one is not to deny that it is without influences from outside.

		And the authors suggest, without quite asserting it, that because people freely choose obesity in a free market, it must be a good thing.
