"Inflation is anywhere and everywhere a monetary phenomenon."
Words to live by.
I am curious, how can those who support Bush's fiscal policy over the past 6 years also admire Friedman's contributions to economics?
Posted by: delbrians at November 16, 2006 01:37 PMI only support the tax cuts of Bush's fiscal policy. I am ardently against his spending.

Good. Loser.

Delbrians - in absolute terms Bush's spending increases look scary, but as a percentage of GDP spending hasn't been unusually high; see this graph.

Congratulations.
