You mean would I disagree WITH Milton Friedman? I think that’s what you meant so I will answer by saying no, I don’t disagree with him but I think this current Fed isn’t even pushing on that string anymore. Lowering interest rates as fast as they have is contributing to inflation, not keeping it in check.

I have to disagree. The lower interest rates are having virtually no effect on inflation. Almost all current inflation is due to falling dollar values and high levels of imports.
