Milton Friedman wanted to spread his love of math
Wow, Naomi Klein is on BookTV talking smack on Libertarianism and she sounds terrrrrible. Stammerific. She seems pretty smart, though, if a little misguided. I'd like to read her new book.
EDIT: NM, she's a dummy. She's saying that free marketeers have a more top-down ideology as opposed to Socialism and Populism. Ridonkulous. To suggest that those at Cato are bought out ideologically by "all the richest families in the country" that contribute money to them is just plain untrue.
EDIT 2: HAHAHA, she was just all "it sucks for the Iraqis that they had this promise of liberation and then their economy gets revamped and Paul Bremer says 'OK, you can vote'" and the interviewer was like "so are you saying that the Iraq war could've turned out differently if it had been handled by a different administration?" and she just didn't know what to say. "I... I can't go into those hypotheticals"
Then she said $80 billion of federal tax money got "liberated" for New Orleans after Katrina
I'm turning on the Phillies, this is making me sad
