Show Notes
Milton Friedman influenced a generation of politicians, turning them from Keynesian economics to a more free-market way of doing things. Margaret Thatcher described him an intellectual freedom fighter. In this edition of the Debunking Economics podcast Steve Keen debunks the Friedman approach to capitalism and Phil Dobbie suggests one politician who has abandoned the approach, because he has increased tariffs, something Milton would be very opposed to.
