Milton Friedman ... Laissez Faire

Milton Friedman Puts A Young Person In His Place ... in my view this shows really how fundamentally wrong Milton Friedman has been

Burgess COMMENTARY
This conversation between an intelligent youth and Milton Friedman shows to me the utter bankruptcy of the Milton Friedman arguments. It is amazing that Milton Friedman got so much mileage out of his arrogant and vaccuus argument.
Peter Burgess

Milton Friedman Puts A Young Person In His Place

Original Title ... Milton Friedman Puts A Young Michael Moore In His Place
*Update*
Holy cow! I never thought this video would get so many views. I uploaded it as a joke - this is not the real Michael Moore (although if you add some neckfat it would be hard to tell the difference). I meant 'A Young Michael Moore' in the sense that a child who is great at basketball is a 'Young Michael Jordan'. Nevertheless, I'm glad it stirred some debate in the comment section, it's a great back and forth between Friedman and the kid, IMO. I thought the metaphor would be obvious, seeing as how the kid is a skinny redhead, while Michael Moore... well, isn't a skinny redhead. I apologize for the confusion.
