These videos are libertarian crack. Everything he said 30-40 years ago is dead on where we are at today. What he says about the welfare state and how it is designed for the exact opposite effect than its supposed intention pieces together why we are so divided today.

Screenrecord now and hide. Will be banned and purged soon on any device connected to the internet.

We are all going to need old, standalone computers that are not wifi capable to watch this type of media soon.

For those of us old enough, we're blessed to have shared the planet with intellects like Milton Friedman and Thomas Sowell (who is still with us, scrappy as ever).

His policies were effectively discredited by academics after 2008, but keep on, keep on doing the same.

That’s a good sign he was on the right track because there are few things more worthless in this world than academics.

Is that supposed to be positive or a negative for his ideas? I am genuinely confused?

Sorry but this is just factually incorrect. How did academics discredit Friedman? If anything 2008 is the ultimate validation of Milton's policies.

So, no one in the real world. Academic discredidation is a fukin badge of honor. Absolute proof that he was correct.

Trump had the lowest unemployment and greatest economic boom in history with his policies. Tell your academics to prove that wrong.
