Freedom

Milton Friedman, Professor of Economics at the University of Chicago and Nobel Prize winner, has passed away at the age of 94.  At the University of Chicago he advised both Thomas Sowell and Gary Becker on their doctorates.  

In 2002, on the occasion of Prof. Friedman's 90th birthday, Ben Bernanke, then a member, now chairman, of the Federal Reserve, remarked:

"Regarding the Great Depression. You're right, we did it. We're very sorry."

A titan in his field, granted a long life and active until the end.  We should all be so fortunate.

R.I.P.
