Read this article by Economist Milton Friedman (6 pages). Given that the text provides a chapter on Ethics/Social Responsibility, this article provides a nice contrast. Take your time if you're not used to articles in this tone.
For this blog:
- Do you agree with the general premise of Dr. Friedman's article? Why or why not?
- Provide two reasons why you agree or disagree.
This is the type of assignment where there may be common points made by everyone. That's fine. I'm good as long as you follow directions. Consider writing your blog reading other students' blog so you don't let those other postings bias you.
