Capitalism and Freedom
Economic freedom is the foundation of political freedom.
Friedman argues that competitive capitalism and free markets are essential to individual liberty and political freedom. He makes the case for limited government and applies free-market thinking to education, monetary policy, licensing, and discrimination. The book became a manifesto for classical liberal economic policy.
Founders thrive in competitive markets, and this book lays out the philosophical case for the free enterprise that makes startups possible. It sharpens how you think about regulation, government, and the role of markets in creating opportunity.
