Basically if women want equal pay for equal work, they are anti-feminist according to Milton Friedman. I agree, fully

Elaborate on what you believe the flaw to be


The flaw is the women actually agreeing to go with it. He makes an excellent point, but the women in america are too stubborn to go for something like. If this is the case the same system would work if women were payed more and men paid less. regardless of the outcome, weather it would be economically better for the country as a whole, I believe the people wont go for it. equality is costly but its the most effective way to ensure happiness.

Considering more men own businesses in America, it would actually be music to a sexist's ears, to be allowed to pay men less. That being said, the only reason women wouldn't go for it is because they are idiots. If they can't see it would help them in the long run, then they deserve to be inferior

Now im just going to disagree and leave. America was not founded on the principles you believe in if thats the case. My stance is all humans are created equal. and i will just respect your opinion, though i disagree, and ask that you respect mine

How can someone be equal, yet not understand they are being helped?

BTW America was founded on the principle that all White Men were created equal. Don't believe me? Women couldn't own land or vote, and blacks were slaves.

Ignorant means I lack knowledge. If you think Im wrong, you lack the knowledge

You are clearly the ignorant one because, you don't understand I'm actually arguing to help women.

I agree, nice video. Feminism in general is really stupid for various reasons.

thanks man. Milton Friedman really was a smart cookie

Yeah. You should see thunderfoot's youtube videos-like this one for example.

He always takes apart feminists arguments.

If you knew Friedman's reputation, you wouldn't have posted this.

You've stumbled twice ignorantly in this thread; first by posting a video of that and secondly by stating that ignorance is only a lack of knowledge, when in fact, it can be a lack of many things.

I know Milton friedman's reputation just fine. The man is a legend of conservative politics and winner of many awards. The question is how can you refute the point he is making logically? And btw, I'll just leave this here. Ignorance- lack of knowledge or information.

i see your Milton Friedman and raise you a Thomas Sowell

It's a bit dated but i highly doubt we've gotten worse in 30+ yrs.
