Good on Harper, and for the record I agree with him.

Why is everybody trying to paint Friedman and his Chicago school fellows as some kind of poster boys for free market economists??? They are not, and that's fine, but lets not pretend Friedman is some kind of a hero of the "taxes/government/regulation/etc are evil" crowd.
