This time, he is offering an original treatise on economist Milton Friedman, the nobel prizewinning intellectual architect of the free market reforms of the postworld war ii era. Today, as it happens, would have been dr. Friedmans 102nd birthday. I have no doubt it will be marks best presentation yet. So you might ask, why am i willing to go out on a limb this way . As an economist might put it, on the one hand, according to the website, superscholar. Org, mark is one of the top 20 living economists in the world. I guess that designation is a gentle way of reminding us that as the no longer living economist John Maynard Keynes famously said, in the long run, were all dead. But i digress.
