America Needs A New Milton Friedman

TedTed
in Off-Topic
FYI: Milton Friedman had many ideas that I disagree with, and others that I think haven’t stood the test of time. But there’s no denying his influence over the world of economics; he was one of the field’s greatest popularizers and explainers. Friedman’s 1980 television series, "Free to Choose," introduced a combination of basic economics and libertarian political ideology to a generation of Americans. With books such as “Capitalism and Freedom” and “Free to Choose: A Personal Statement” (co-authored with his wife Rose), he became one of the country’s premier public intellectuals. For many Americans, the face of Milton Friedman is still the face of economics.
Regards,
Ted
