Re: protecting the weak

Is this a rhetorical question? Or is this man vieing for having his name
used in the quote dictionary as the penultimate example of the "guys [who]
just don't get it."
Friedman's work is used to batter the heads of poor economics students around
the world, he wins the right to be heard in the press, and he exemplifies
that economic establishment which autocratically rejects every piece of
economic writing which does not slavishly apply neoclassical economic
modelling. Friedman exemplifies rejection of every economic idea which
doesn't have its originating point in the Chicago school, and he is subject
to censorship? Who is this guy kidding besides himself?
