Reason Magazine - Quotations From Chairman Milton

Some great comments collected from the late Milton Friedman. We lost a champion of liberty and individual freedom, but hopefully he planted seeds in thousands more. This offers a good time to refresh your friends' minds with his wisdom. Take a moment to email them a link to this article or others, or drop one of his quotes in your next communique.


Reason Magazine - Quotations From Chairman Milton: "The case for free enterprise, for competition, is that it’s the only system that will keep the capitalists from having too much power. There’s the old saying, “If you want to catch a thief, set a thief to catch him.” The virtue of free enterprise capitalism is that it sets one businessman against another and it’s a most effective device for control."
