Friedman’s bad rep is mostly due to the fact that Monetarism came to be associated with all the draconian fiscal and labor policies implemented by Reagan did during his Presidency that had nothing to do with Friedman’s contribution to Economics.

Well, of course, I have no problem with that. But please stop capitalizing “economics” as though it were the Holy Grail.

I don’t think anyone among us, no matter how smart, has a fucking clue about What’s Going On.
