My Hero: Milton Friedman


I spent some time today watching my hero, Milton Friedman.  I needed the reinforcement of principle.

This one video is a good review for today’s situations, taped in 1999.   Milton about Clinton, Social Security, etc.

I suggest you Google "Milton Friedman" and then just start watching as many of the short videos you find.  There are many topics, all still relevant today.

Best Quote:  “What do you mean Give Back?”  when talking about reducing taxes.

Too bad Milton misses it on the prediction for government size in 2009.

Economics 101:  A series of videos:  Economics 101 Videos

On The Fed:  The Federal Reserve causes the Great Depression:  The Great Depression and the Fed

On Social Security:  Social Security Myth

Have fun.

I also like the Hoover Institution at Stanford University a lot.  They prepared this video.

Hillary' Crimes: Post Pagliano, FBI getting hotter

Catherine Herridge has some good reporting at Fox about the email scandal and the FBI investigations.  This article discusses the background to the latest developments about Pagliano and the servers he set up in Hillary's home(s).

I especially like how Herridge describes the confusion around the word "classified."  The MSM has allowed this confusion to proliferate.  They have egregiously allowed Hillary to get away with using the prevarication that, "Nothing I sent or received was marked classified."  Of course, nothing is marked classified because it is not an official description of materials that have national security value.  Those things are marked Confidential, Secret, Top Secret or Top Secret SAP.  And as always, a marking on the document is not necessary for it to be any of those classifications.

Hillary's Crimes: FBI Closing In - Pagliano Gets Immunity

Brian Pagliano, who set up Hillary's email servers in her home, seems willing to talk now.  Normally immunity isn't granted unless charges are imminent on someone, probably Pagliano.  He had to know that he was doing something not kosher by going around State Department rules on security and secure systems.

From the Washington Post:  "The Justice Department has granted immunity to a former State Department staffer, who worked on Hillary Clinton’s private email server, as part of a criminal investigation into the possible mishandling of classified information, according to a senior law enforcement official."

This is actually a pretty good article with some background on the timeline of the crimes.
