@jennzen78 I don't think he has really read M. Friedman at all. People misunderstand what that quote means.
-
Lol, I don't think he's read a lot of things. I RT'd it bc he hasn't paid his taxes in 2+ decades.
-
I think most who read that tweet think "yeah screw those people on welfare!" Friedman didn't believe that either.
-
Are you defending Friedman? He believed greed is good.
-
lol, no not at all. I'm just pointing out that his theories aren't so simple.
-
Yeah well, it's simple to see why that would resonate with hypocrite Trump.
-
of course. They are even more ignorant than he is.
