Socialism/central government planning of an economy or program doesn’t work.The extremely complex structure of the economy where millions of people cooperate to proce products in real time could never be planned nor managed by a central socialist planner even if he were Einstien.
In his graphic style, Milton Friedman illustrated that principle on his television program, Free to Choose, with “The Pencil Story.” Friedman held a common yellow #2 pencil in his hand and said:
“Nobody knows how to make a pencil. There’s not a single person in the world who actually knows how to make a pencil.
“In order to make a pencil, you have to get wood for the barrel. In order to get wood, you have to have logging. You have to have somebody who can manufacture saws. No single person knows how to do all that.
“What’s called lead isn’t lead. It’s graphite. It comes from some mines in South America. In order to make pencils, you’d have to be able to get the lead.
“The rubber at the tip isn’t really rubber, but it used to be. It comes from Malaysia, although the rubber tree is not native to Malaysia. It was imported into Malaysia by some English botanists.
“So, in order to make a pencil, you would have to be able to do all of these things. There are probably thousands of people who have cooperated together to make this pencil. Somehow or other, the people in South America who dug out the graphite cooperated with the people in Malaysia who tapped the rubber trees, cooperated with, maybe, people in Oregon who cut down the trees.
“These thousands of people don’t know one another. They speak different languages. They come from different religions. They might hate one another if they met. What is it that enabled them to cooperate together?
“The answer is the existence of a market.
“The simple answer is the people in South America were led to dig out the graphite because somebody was willing to pay them. They didn’t have to know who was paying them; they didn’t have to know what it was going to be used for. All they had to know was somebody was going to pay them.
“What brought all these people together was an enormously complex structure of prices - the price of graphite, the price of lumber, the price of rubber, the wages paid to the laborer, and so on. It’s a marvelous example of how you can get a complex structure of cooperation and coordination which no individual planned.
“There was nobody who sat in a central office and sent an order out to Malaysia: ‘Produce more rubber.’ It was the market that coordinated all of this without anybody having to know all of the people involved.”
The Power of Freedom
Whether it’s making pencils or jumbo jets, the power of individual freedom is extraordinary. In a free market, where free men and free women can raise capital and start a business, everyone succeeds or fails on their own merit.
Those who succeed bring prosperity to themselves, their family, their community, and their nation. This basic individual freedom burns in the hearts of people around the globe.
Amazing work.
Just got reading it.
I bet he did! ;-) FR is awesome!
Bomb threat on a Denver flight? Got minimal coverage, plane back in Denver. Pax unloaded all luggage on the ground being hand searched.
Link is just fine, thank you brytlea!
LOL!!!!
Bravo for all the INFO by everyone on this forum.....I live close by to the crash site and I’m getting all my news from you guys!!!
Thanks!!
Thanks. Evidently a left wing nut. He hates the Catholic Church, he hates business, he tried to cheat the IRS the way he thinks rich people do but got caught, and he ends his screed with the Communist Manifesto and a communist version of the Capitalist Manifesto.
Somebody certainly should save this, since the MSM may try to pretend that he is a right wing nut.
Whew. I can’t tell you how relieved I am to hear that!
12.4 percent unemployment rate. The unemployment situation was revised last month nationwide and the BLS upped the number of jobs lost in this recession from the “low” 7 million to 8.4 million.
And as he loots America he says he has to do it because of the last 8 years. Over and over again.
Obama has no honor towards the people and he does not intend to make America feel safe or secure as Bush did after 9/11. Obama rules by crisis. People are angry. This guy believed it was Bush's fault and he never thought about the fact that things are getting steadily worse and the fact Pelosi has been in charge since 2007.
Bush did do some things wrong but he had real crisis that Obama could never handle.
yes, the anger and hysteria people feel right now have been fueled by Obama and his administration. There is no calm since Obama took office.
| David Scott of KXAN-TV Austin just reported that neighbors said that Joe was outraged that he was being pursued by the IRS. He and his wife got into a fight last night, and then his wife and daughter left to stay in a hotel. Then his wife and daughter came back to the house sometime last night. This morning, Joe and his wife got into a fight again and a short time later, the house was seen to be on fire. |
The DUmmies are calling him a “tea bagger”.

Burned his house at 9:30 and flew into the building at 9:46.
Is that possible? Was he that close to the airport?
I am in West Texas so 6 hours away from Austin, but Freepers get the job done... ASAP!

Milton Friedman is/was the man. Thank you for the link.
