Another video with Milton Friedman that goes a bit more in depth on this subject of why do people and societies tend to move towards collectivism. He's aged quite a bit here, but he articulates the heart of the issue better than anyone I've heard.

If you don't want to hear all 29 minutes, he hits these points at 4 minutes, 8 minutes, and 10 minutes. At 12:00 in the video, he asserts (1994) that we were more than 50% socialist. We're much worse now. He discusses in a way few do, why this inexorable move to the left.

That is Friedman and it is about collectivism but it is only 8 minutes long. By chance, do you happen to have another URL for the vid you mentioned?

I’m sorry. The URL is perfectly fine. It was my mistake.

I will come back to this. I don’t have thirty minutes right now, and I’d like to view the whole clip.
