What would he say if he were holding a diamond in his hand?

sounds like it. The only thing he really felt differently from a free-market type of economy was that he felt it was fine for government to control what is money instead of letting the market itself decide what was to be used for money. Other than that he was an advocate for free markets and an advocate for human freedom in general.

Free to Choose was a really great series, and this part is especially of great importance.

Do you have to take classes to be this stupid?

Friedman thinks in black and white. It is the 'magical price system' OR communism in his most extreme form.

Milton Friedman was a national treasure.

You're disturbing. Even more disturbing is the educational system that leads you to think this is "disturbing."
Optimistically, I hope by "disturbing" you mean this rattles your heavily indoctrinated understanding of economics. In that case, job well done by this posting!

If I'm not mistaken, isn't this a highly-accessible explication of the "unseen hand" theory of free markets espoused by either Hayek or Von Mises? What a lecturer he must have been.
(I hope somebody posts Friedman's appearance on BOOKNOTES where he referes to J. K. Galbraith as a socialist, and manages to be non-perjorative, merely matter-of-fact, when he does it...) |
