Milton Friedman's Freedom to choose




Milton Friedman is possibly the greatest and most influential economist of the last century. He is a staunch advocate of the free market, a smaller government and the freedom to choose.

When asked by Charlie Rose about what he hopes his legacy would be , he said that he hopes to be remembered for 2 things. First, he hopes that future economists can still find his work useful. Second, and more importantly, he wants to be remembered as someone who advanced human freedom.

A great man indeed.
