Milton Friedman Day

Milton Friedman, widely considered one of the most influential economists of the 20th century, passed away November 16, 2006 at age 94. In honor of Mr. Friedman, today officially turns into Milton Friedman Day. As a Rutgers University alumni, I respect this man.

Most importantly, this Nobel Prize winning economist was born in Rahway, New Jersey! To date, Rahway has produced many fine champions of this era, including Carl Sagan and Emmanuel Yarborough.
