milton friedman. i did have lunch with him right before he died in 2006. he was frail, this is a picture of us together, he was unshaven, he had forgotten about our luncheon. his wife reminded him. he was about 94, 95 at the time. it looks like you will live to i asked him -- it looks like you will live to be 100, are you excited? he said, i hope not. he was a little bit frail and losing his eyesight. for a scholar to lose your eyesight like that it is , difficult. he had hearing problems, a lot of problems. i had my very first luncheon with friedman in the early 1980's. we were at a conference together i noticed he was on the program. i met him a couple of times before, but he really did not know who i was. i called him on the phone and i said listen, can we have lunch together? we are here at this conference -- and he said yes, that would be fine. this was in laguna miguel, i think this was at the ritz carlton. a beautiful hotel overlooking the ocean. there we were the two of us for a couple of hour

friedman or mr. friedman. he actually prefers mister, which is all professors are called at chicago. so they have no pretense of this ph.d. stuff and so forth. and i said, mr. friedman, all my life i've heard your statement, there's no such thing as a free lunch. this was -- he's actually written a book on this subject. there's no such thing as a free lunch. i said i don't want to ever hear your statement there's no such thing as a free lunch because i'm paying for yours. and quick as a bat he said, no, no, no, that wasn't a lunch. i had to listen to you for two hours. so anyway, here is the picture that i was showing milton friedman that he got a real belly laugh out of. now this is a picture of george stigler. george stigler who worked with milton friedman for many years. taught at the university of chicago. milton friedman in the middle and john kenneth galbraith, very much a keynesian economist. and george stigler who had a very wry sense of humor said all economists are tall. there are two exceptions. joh

friedman said was all about the medical issues at hand, but what we in washington now have to focus on the policy issues beginning with travel, access from that region. and the thing is, it's a global society so someone could go to china and then come to the united states and escape this. but that's got to be on the table. i think it's a little short-sided to say you shut down. it's hard to shut down a global economy in that way. the second thing to think about is, visitor versus citizen. so if this person is a visitor, do we have a different standard for visitors from that region or from anywhere in the world for that matter versus our own citizens in bringing them back? and finally, the fever check. is that a sufficient mechanism or, in fact, do we have the right as a sovereign country to say, we want a higher standard before we let anybody in. >> the president talked to the director friedman about the strict isolation protocols under which the patient is being treated as well as ongoing efforts to trace the patient's contacts to mitigate the risk of additional cases. george? >> this

but the whole theory of perfect markets that the devotees of adam smith and milton friedman, and all these people who think that markets work perfect, totally ignored. so the idea was that markets where people have different information, where some people know more than others, where markets work imperfectly, are fundamentally different from this world that they had described, where there was perfect information. you know, if worlds were perfect information, there wouldn't be any discrimination, there wouldn't be any of this monopolies and all, you know, those kinds of perfections are not part of the world that we live in. and so what my research did is to help clarify, and with other people's research, help clarify why our economy doesn't work quite so smoothly as the advocates of free markets have claimed. why we had a crisis in 2008. you know, that's not the way market economies are supposed to operate. why it is, you know, the basic law of economics is you have supply and demand. with supply, the law of supply and demand, there's not supposed to be unemployment. you know, we have

were against government planning, to be sure, but they were for a safety net, leading to milton friedman's minimum income plan. that heritage goes all the way back to the founder of the chicago school of economics, and it goes back to frederick hayek, who thought there needed to be a safety net. public works was fostered by these conservative philosophers or is he did not like monopolies, very eloquent in busting up monopolies. so we have a doctrinal basis here as well as current operational figures, some politicians, some writers, but most important, back there in the country where people live, work, and raise their children, the ideological schisms are not quite as a parent because these people back home are facing reality. so we have a great deal of disagreement between left, right on reproductive rights and school prayer and gun control and balanced budgets, as i said, but we also have eerie fundamental agreement. and it was illustrated in an interview in the book with the libertarian founder of the cato institute when he said, ralph, i am against all corporate subsidies, unconstitutio
