What a great man he was, and his ideas....Ronald Reagan just to name one was profoundly influenced by Friedman. We owe him so much for reminding us again & again that the free markets works & promote liberty!

Friedman was one of the greatest, if not the greatest, economists of all time.

Friedman died in San Francisco, said Robert Fanger, a spokesman for the Milton and Rose D. Friedman Foundation in Indianapolis. He did not know the cause of death.

old age maybe?

I wonder what he said to Nixon when Nixon decided to put "caps" on the price of various goods? That was even stupider than the Watergate caper.
