Milton Friedman is indeed a well practiced liar.
Are his pants on fire, as well? I'll be around Elboy, any time you want to have a serious discussion.
Friedman's vision of creating a "free market" economy through centrally planned intervention is laughable on its face.
You’ve come full circle. Relying on an argument refuted months ago. That is not a sign of an individual willing, or capable, of learning.

From Milton Freidman's paper in "The Controversy Over Monetary Policy", The Review of Economics and Statistics, Vol. 33, No. 3.
"As a matter of long-run reform, I would like to see the Federal Reserve System in its present form abolished and replaced by a 100 per cent reserve deposit banking system in which there was no monetary authority possessing discretionary powers over the quantity of money. I am convinced by the evidence Harris alludes to that the establishment of the Federal Reserve System was a mistake and that the system has failed to promote the objectives for which it was established. While this is as good a time as any to begin this long-run institutional reform, it cannot be accomplished overnight. We must, willy-nilly, meet the present emergency with present institutions."
Clearly, based on this passage, your views are very similar to Milton Friedman's. Oh, the irony! |
