I believe in Milton Friedman’s idea that there is a tie between economic freedom and political Freedom. I believe in the idea that once economic freedom is lost, political and other freedoms will also follow suite. Having one form of freedom without the other unequalizes things and ultimately things will need to change. I’m not putting a strict time limit on how long things will take to change but I do believe that it is inevitable. In this paper I will be discussing the relation between economic and political freedom, how they feed and affect each other. I will used the United States and China in the modern context as examples and case studies relating to my concept of economic and political freedom. I will also justify my reasoning for why I believe that maintaining freedom in economic and political realms is important and needs to be preserved. I believe that Socialism trades society’s supreme ideal of freedom for the hazy concept of “fairness”. All in all the idea of helping those that are worse off sounds great, but brining it into government means giving up certain amounts of freedom. The role of government is important and needs to be present in society, however, too many times we’ve seen that government intervention was not successful and the goal was missed. There are too many things that can go wrong and turning back from many of the policies can be impossible. |
