The Little Economist Who Told Governments to Get Out of the Way

Free markets, not government dreams, lift people up.

I have spent my life showing the world that when government steps back, prosperity steps forward. From Chicago to Chile, the data is clear: free markets empower people, and economic freedom is the bedrock of all liberty. I've debated kings of politics and titans of television, always with a smile and never without confidence in the truth. My wife Rose and I wrote 'Free to Choose' because we believed that the world deserved to hear it plainly — and it did.

What I'm Into: economic liberty, monetary policy, debating with passion, global prosperity, telling the truth plainly
