i have no friends to discuss this with, so i wanted to find a forum to let my little mind say whatever i wanted.
noam chomsky and milton friedman are boring. chomsky is super boring and friedman is relatively boring. i hate discussing economics and i feel miserable that im required to do this, but at the same time, im somehow grateful because im learning a lot of necessary information.
what do you think about these two economists?
Chomsky is a liberal who advocates Statism. Such a point of view has failed everywhere and everytime it has ever been tried.
Friedman advocated free markets and individuality, and made his case in spades.
What's the issue???
Where are these free markets and individuality that friedman was involved in.
It is an ideal, a philosophy, based largely on natural rights and freedom, and inculcated in the founding documents of our social contract. That it has not been executed perfectly does not diminish Friedman's advocacy, nor does it elevate Chomsky's dangerous desire to the contrary.
