Milton Friedman (born July 31, 1912) is a U.S. economist, known primarily for his work on macroeconomics, microeconomics, economic history, statistics, and for his advocacy of laissez-faire capitalism. In 1976 he won the Bank of Sweden Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel (often called "The Nobel Prize in Economics") for his achievements in the fields of consumption analysis, monetary history and theory and for his demonstration of the complexity of stabilization policy." [1] His television series Free to Choose, aired on PBS in early 1980; it became a book coauthored with his wife Rose Friedman, that was widely read, as were his columns for Newsweek magazine.\n\nIn statistics, he devised the Friedman test as a non-parametric analogue to the two-way analysis of variance.\n\nBorn in New York City, New York to a working class family of Jewish Hungarian immigrants from Beregszász (Berehove, today Ukraine), Friedman grew up in Rahway, New Jersey, was educated at Rutgers University (B.A., 1932) and at the University of Chicago (M.A., 1933). After working for the federal government and for Columbia University, he received a Ph.D. from that institution in 1946. He then served as Professor of Economics at the University of Chicago from 1946 to 1976, where he contributed significantly to the intellectual tradition of the so-called Chicago school of economics. Since 1977, Friedman has been affiliated with the Hoover Institution at Stanford University.\n\nFriedman is widely regarded as the leading proponent of the monetarist school of economic thought. He maintains that there is a close and stable link between inflation and the money supply mainly that the phenomenon of inflation is to be regulated by controlling the amount of money poured into the national economy by the Federal Reserve Bank, he rejects the use of fiscal policy as a tool of demand management, and he holds that the government's role in the guidance of the economy should be severely restricted. Friedman wrote extensively on the Great Depression, which he called the "Great Contraction," arguing that it had been caused by an ordinary financial shock whose duration and seriousness were greatly increased by the subsequent contraction of the money supply caused by the misguided policies of the directors of the Federal Reserve. Friedman also argued for the cessation of government intervention in currency markets, thereby spawning an enormous literature on the subject, as well as promoting the practice of freely floating exchange rates.\n\nFriedman has also supported various libertarian policies such as decriminalization of drugs and prostitution. In addition, he headed the Reagan committee that researched the possibility of a move towards a paid/volunteer armed force, and played a role in the abolition of the draft that took place in the 1970s in the U.S. He served as a member of U.S. President Ronald Reagan's Economic Policy Advisory Board in 1981. In 1988 he received both the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the National Medal of Science. He has said that he is a libertarian philosophically but a member of the U.S. Republican Party for the sake of "expediency" ("I am a libertarian with a small l and a Republican with a capital R. And I am a Republican with a capital R on grounds of expediency, not on principle.")\n\nFriedman made headlines by proposing a negative income tax to replace the existing welfare system and then opposing the bill to implement it because it merely supplemented the existing system rather than replacing it. In recent years Friedman has devoted much of his effort to promoting school vouchers that can be used to pay for tuition at both private and public schools, saying, "What is needed in America is a voucher of substantial size available to all students, and free of excessive regulations." His idea is that vouchers would allow private schools to compete with the public scho

My dear, interesting topics are all around you!  OK, let's start right where you are: your computer.  What is its history?  Who designed the particular things you use, hardware and software?  Who owns the copyrights to the book on the shelf over your head, and how did they get involved in such a topic?  Can you find his or her biography on the Internet?  \n\nOr go out to the kitchen for a snack.  What is the nutritional value of that snack, and how does it compare with your next most favorite snack foods?  What would a diet composted entirely of packaged, don't-have-to-cook foods consist of?  Could one get all the essential nutrients that way?  Or a diet for the homeless, that can't cook or refrigerate anything?  Would camping information apply to them?\n\nSo now you need to go to the bathroom.  Who invented the thing you're sitting on?  (I'm told the name was Thomas Crapper, that he was English.  Can you find his name in real history, or is he an urban legend?)\n\nYou see?  They're all around you!  Contemplate anything that has significance to your life, and chances are there is a story attached.  The history, the science, the math, the law, the politics, even the language and literature, of a particular item.  (Who writes those things on the package?  What labeling laws do they have to obey?)
