Milton Friedman on Donahue 1979 (3/5)

Friedman, shows why he is unsurpassed in modern times in defending liberty. He cheerfully decapitates the ideas of a government-controlled economy, over a wide range of examples. His layman's explanation as to how government intervention and the Federal Reserve control of the money supply helped cause the Great Depression is simply outstanding.

because being smart was deemed hot back in the 80-ies. Milton Friedman was smart. If you want to be hot today, you have to be at least a Hollywood socialist douche-bag.

all that Democrats care about is their bloated ego. bloated with half-truths puss, maggots of lies and most of all - the poison of their own hypocrisy.

Friedman gets me at 2:30. I think that he is absolutely right. This seems to be the West is the best of all possible worlds for which poor people live in. I hate to say it and I may get alot of nasty replies but that's just life I guess..

[edavismookie25]

Me too. Glad I am not the only one!

[MrVinnyable1]

Well said.

Yea, I gained the same knowledge about the inflation a couple of years ago and overall in comparison of unemployment inflation turns out to be a positive economic situation.
