Happy Birthday Dr. Friedman

Post by SteveGo »

July 31, 2012 marks the 100th birth date of Milton Friedman. I remember his television series and book, "Free to Choose," as a brilliant tutorial on free market economics.

If you go and watch some of his lectures and other videos, you find someone who can speak to you in such a way to make plain and convincing some pretty important ideas.

I lift my glass in memory...

Great clip!  Phil Donahue is the perfect foil for Friedman here.
