That was Friedman talking and he played an extremely important behind-the-scenes role in Reagan’s economic policies. He advocated a 17% flat tax rate. I was lucky enough to meet him twice and was (and still am) absolutely in awe of his intellect.

I met Friedman when he visited a local bank who's president was on the fed board of governors, My dad sat on the bank board and we all had lunch. We were also awestruck.
