I don't agree with all that Milton Friedman said or did; nevertheless, I respect him immensely. It seems to me that he has done more than most (perhaps Ayn Rand beats him out) to popularize the benefits of voluntarism, individualism, and free-market capitalism not only in this country but world-wide. I gotta give the man a huge heap of credit. Now his son, David is another story. It's heartbreaking, actually. I so want to have an argument with the man but, in all I've read, I've nothing to do but pick very minor nits. And I'm above that. Really. G. >
