Question

I had stopped reading some of the socialist blogs. To paraphrase Tolstoy, every good thing in life offers something new, all garbage is absolutely the same. But looks like I may have to change my policy, I may be missing out on much fun.

I came across this utterly astonishing post on KrishWorld (via Nilu).

Milton Friedman could be a great economist but his propaganda (like the one I have linked above) is plain bullshit. I may respect him for the work he has done in the field of economics (like how I respect any other academic) but his propaganda is nonsense.

Now, being the shallow individual that I am, I can only think of one agenda that an academic person can have and that is to prove and promote his academic research and idea.

Anyway.

The question that I have is simple: would it be easier to separate Friedman's research from his agenda or pull Krish's head out of his ass? Just curious.
