Milton's the man

Russ Roberts interviews Milton Friedman. The interview focuses on two of Friedman's books, A Monetary History of the United States and Capitalism and Freedom. These books both came out in the early 1960s and their influence persists. In Capitalism and Freedom you'll read about many modern reforms and suggestions for reforms that were radical at the time. Among other ideas, Friedman advocated for a volunteer army, a negative income tax, and education vouchers well before it was popular.
