Free Enterprise System: Tyler Perry

Decent Essays
In a free enterprise system people have a choice to make or do what ever they want to become successful. I choose Tyler Perry for my argument and I think it was necessary for him to use the free enterprise system to become successful in this world. In Tyler Perry's story on how he became successful was very emotional but inspiring to me. He have wrote and produced many plays in the 1990's and nearly nobody came but a few people. Around the 2000's on up he started making progress and blessings started coming his way since 1998.

When free enterprise is included in Tyler Perry's life I believe that he used that to his advantage so he can become successful. It gave him an opportunity to write plays and produce them at theatres with no government

    "The Myth of The Robber Barons" by Burton W. Folsom, JR. is a very distinct story talking about the early American entrepreneurs. This story is a good illustration of big businessmen as being beyond America's significance. At the beginning of the story, Folsom portrays two significant types of entrepreneurs; market entrepreneurs and political entrepreneurs. He then begins to mention that "no entrepreneur fits perfectly into one category or the other, but most fall generally into one category" (pg. 1). Thereby, according to Folsom, “Political Entrepreneurs best fit into the classic robber barons mold” (pg. 1).…

    If entrepreneurs can create products that consumers demand, they can make a large amount of profit and become extremely successful. The reason for this is that since consumers have the ability to earn their own money and spend it however they would like, they buy whatever goods and services they want in whatever amounts they please. Therefore, if a business can figure out what it is that consumers want, in large supply, and give it to them at a price that they are willing to pay, then that business can be sure of success in those regards. Without the free enterprise system and its central idea of supply and demand, Bill Gates could not have become so successful in his business endeavors by selling as much product as he did. Free enterprise enables producers to take advantage of the law of supply and demand and use it to their own benefit by creating the products that consumers want, so that businesses are able to become successful and earn substantial amounts of…

Carnegie’s business and humanitarian efforts have solidified him in the minds of generations of Americans and have earned him the position as one of America’s greatest stories of hard work paying off in multiple areas.…

    They may have other responsibilities such as their church, their family, and/or their country that they deem worthy of their time and efforts. These are what Friedman refers to as “social responsibilities”. However in these respects the businessman is acting as a principal, not an agent.
