“Why Government Is The Problem”: Milton Friedman, #2.

The following was written by Milton Friedman in his Essays in Public Policy. These were  published in Feb.  1993.

Friedman hoped to see Term limits for America’s politicians. This is an essential step forward in the fight to save our dying Constitutional Republic. The politicians of both parties will fight this with all of their might and this is one of America’s fatal flaws.

Quote:

Abraham Lincoln talked about a government of the people, by the people, for the people. What we now have is a government of the people, by the bureaucrats, including the legislators who have become bureaucrats, for the bureaucrats.
