"Free to Choose" (Milton Friedman)

Let me just start by stating that for a time I will be blogging fun and serious items. Tonite..a serious blog. This is for all those on Facebook who enjoy posting news breaks, updates, commentated material, Glenn Beckisms, Bill O'reillyisms and general online articles they come across in the course of the day. Milton Friedman. Look him up. Don Not Wikipedia him. Do the right and honorable thing and actual investigate him. Brilliant economist. You do not need a Ph.D to understand his book : Free to Choose. Read it. Really pay attention and Read it. Written in the
1960's and extremely controversial but ground breaking, just about everything he predicted has come true or is on its way to being true. Not a long book, you should be ok. And then go ahead and post all the articles and shocking news you want. But at least you will have a clear idea and understanding of where our country is and why it is. And. And. wait for it folks.....after reading his book and if you choose to read more GREAT....You cannot, I repeat, cannot act Shocked in any way shape or form of the state of our economy, society and world wide reputation. Remember folks "money is the root of all evil" so lets start studying and looking at how this country handles money and how the Economic System really works, you need to put the "policy critique" to the side and learn to think beyond that, because that is not the underlying issue, it is masked by the policy. I have studied him quite extensively along with Greenspan, Goldman Sachs, Dr. Anna J. Shwartz ( "A Monetary History of the United States" READ IT, Phenomenal book.) and NBER(look it up). I am a little tired of the quality lacking in some of the articles that appear in general and appear on Facebook...so as you can you read I am firing back. If people care about the "state of the union" and care about their children's "futures" as they state, then I feel strongly in taking a step back and doing some hard research not just of policy/constitution but of prominent people in our past, what people in our past have accomplished, in what direction they were moving. History repeats itself and I feel that the Glenn Beckisms, the Bill O'Riellyisms only carry people into a state of fear and panic. End of point. Surfing the net all day for news is great but there is more to it. Leverage for most debates and arguments don't come from YOUTUBE clips but from our ancestors and martyrs and great thinkers, innovators and inventors. Thank you. Next blog will be about the current misconception of GOLD...remember folks...GOLD is a ...Commodity. Till next time.
