“Underlying most arguments against the free market is a lack of belief in freedom itself.

- Milton Friedman “

Friedman also said that trade deals like NAFTA and TPP which bypass the needed Senate 60 votes are NOT FREE TRADE, they are government managed trade. I’ll never forget on Cspan watching him try to make Dick Armey (Freedom works sell out!) understand that. Armey didn’t care because he was making big bucks pushing it, which is why any of them support TPP, including TED CRUZ...he not only voted for TPa, but praised it in the WSJ.

Milton Friedman: I would hope so. NAFTA is misnamed, it’s not a Free Trade Agreement, it’s a Managed Trade Agreement.

Any trade deal that reduces tariffs, and results in less government interference, is freer trade. Unless you believe that higher taxes and increased government control of the economy is good, you should support lower taxes and less government control of the economy.

Friedman, like most economic literates, fully understood that. Friedman supported NAFTA and even said that all parties would benefit.

Friedman is a fool of he thinks labor doesn't move to where it's cheapest. You can't have a "free market" when there are countries that pay their employees slave market wages for the same job. This is the stuff of globalism, not the stuff of protecting nations.
