Title: [video] Milton Friedman, Land value tax and internet currencies Post by: Frozenlock on April 27, 2013, 05:27:37 AM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2mdYX1nF_Y (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2mdYX1nF_Y)
Quote "The one thing that's missing, but that will soon be developed, it's a reliable e-cash. A method where buying on the internet you can transfer funds from A to B, without A knowing B or B knowing A. The way in wich I can take a 20 dollar bill and hand it over to you and there's no record of where it came from. And you may get that without knowing who I am. That kind of thing will develop on the Internet." This man was a genius.

Milton Friedman was a real "free thinker", though many condemn him... Free to choose is also great... |
