In the summer of 1962, I read Milton Friedman’s essay, “Is a Free Society Stable?” It was published in a campus quarterly journal, New Individualist Review. A group of students at the University of Chicago published it. It remains the best campus journal I have ever read. It ceased publication after seven years: April 1961 […]

My friend and former business manager John Mauldin has become an economist. I hate to see this. He is a good analyst. He is a good commentator on business trends.
