弗里德曼(Milton Friedman)语录
Governments never learn. Only people learn.
If you put the federal government in charge of the Sahara Desert, in 5 years there'd be a shortage of sand.
Inflation is the one form of taxation that can be imposed without legislation.
Only government can take perfectly good paper, cover it with perfectly good ink and make the combination worthless.
Many people want the government to protect the consumer. A much more urgent problem is to protect the consumer from the government.
Most of the energy of political work is devoted to correcting the effects of mismanagement of government.
Nothing is so permanent as a temporary government program.
The government solution to a problem is usually as bad as the problem.
The Great Depression, like most other periods of severe unemployment, was produced by government mismanagement rather than by any inherent instability of the private economy.
The greatest advances of civilization, whether in architecture or painting, in science and literature, in industry or agriculture, have never come from centralized government.
The only relevant test of the validity of a hypothesis is comparison of prediction with experience.
The only way that has ever been discovered to have a lot of people cooperate together voluntarily is through the free market. And that's why it's so essential to preserving individual freedom.
The power to do good is also the power to do harm.
The problem of social organization is how to set up an arrangement under which greed will do the least harm, capitalism is that kind of a system.
We have a system that increasingly taxes work and subsidizes nonwork.
