Happy Birthday Milton

“Underlying most arguments
against the free market is
a lack of belief in freedom itself.”

Milton Friedman would have been 100 years old today.

I find that there are three incredible items concerning him.

One: that there are still a lot of people who do not know who he is (was).

Two: That Chicago was his main stomping grounds as a brilliant educator on economics.

Three: That in such a short time, people have completely forgotten and/or ignored the reality of historical fact concerning his expertise.

On the Phil Donahue Show in 1979

“If you put the federal government in charge of the Sahara Desert,
in 5 years there’d be a shortage of sand.”

– Milton Friedman
