Is America number one? understanding the economics of success

Description

America enjoyed unprecedented growth in the 1990s, which firmly established the country as the world's leading economic power. Why? In this program, ABC News correspondent John Stossel reports on what special factors make the U.S. and Hong Kong, a tiny yet extremely dynamic geopolitical entity, so successful-and why similar success eludes India and other countries. Experts include Nobel Prize-winning economist Milton Friedman; Federal Reserve economist Michael Cox; Dinesh D'Souza, of the American Enterprise Institute; Tom Palmer, of the Cato Institute; and Dr. James Galbraith, of the University of Texas at Austin.
