No idea what you meant by your last Milton Friedman remark. Maybe you're trying to reference to my suggestion of Friedman. However, Capitalism got murdered in the recent years because of the left's unending desire for big government.
Capitalism "got murdered"? I guess the L Curve model will need to be revised or discarded then. http://lcurve.org The perpetrator who murdered Capitalism was someone called "the left"? Where can I donate to their legal defense fund? Just kidding... in real life there is no Left or Right except as closely allied, mutually dependent criminal gangs competing for larger shares of plunder. In the context of popular political beliefs, Left and Right mean Good and Evil relative to which end of the scale the True Believer at hand identifies with. This result has been obtained by a complex of long term domestic and international political warfare strategies I call Divide The Conquered. People with a neurotic fixation on the notional Left / Right scale present very convincing rationalizations and context-free cherry picked data proving that Left and Right are fundamentally different, even opposites. They are supported by whole industries devoted to promoting these beliefs and their common frame of reference. But when implemented as State policy, Left and Right ideologies are most distinguishable by which of their common mechanisms are publicized and which are hidden from public view. Once the above frame of reference is on the table, we may see options other than participating in the Divide The Conquered game where by definition we start and finish glued into the loser's seat. Until we do find other options, business as usual is safe from meddling by the great unwashed masses whose proper place is on a treadmill of production / consumption that powers their rightful owners' enterprises, amusements and conflicts. :o)
P.S: it's even more interesting seeing that it's coming from a "@gmail.com" address lol
