    Anyone else feel exhausted from obsessively watching things like this in order to arm yourself with tools to defend yourself in public against angry outraged people? Yet when you go to use these arguments, your exhaustion does not allow you to say much more than 1 or 2 things because you can't imagine having to explain the 1000 things you have to say to their 1 sentence?

    Cornell wouldn’t have him today.  He would be shouted down and banned from campus by “protesters.”

    In a twist of fate, I have come to realize that Friedman rebelled more effectively and radically against convention than the hippies.

    This is not just economics. This is philosophy.

    We've been talking about the exact same issues with the exact same arguments for the past 50 years. That's depressing.

    No kidding. I've been in Germany for some time now and there's always these anti-capitalism protests so finally I asked one of the people to define capitalism when he was done I was shocked, he just described fascism.

    <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27Tf8RN3uiM&amp;t=2582">43:02</a> &quot;when you hear people objecting to the market, or to capitalism, and you examine their objections, you will find that most of those objections are objections to freedom itself. what most people are objecting to is that the market gives the people what the people want, instead of what the person talking thinks the people ought to want&quot;<br>absolutely brilliant
