...eating 60 per cent of the taxpayers' dollars, controlling more industries than Howard Hughes, and protecting just about every nation with the exception of the Soviet Union and china. What are we becoming? A vast war machine. We are a military-industrial nation. I'm not a political theorist, nor do I pretend to be, but man, we've got to stop and think this over. This must stop before we start taking over our own government...
...flooded with students yearning for community. To many students and some professors, the university is now a giant corporation that manufactures human cogs for other corporations while performing "complicit" war research for the country's alleged militarists. "The college, after all," says L. D. Nachman, a young radical political theorist at the City University of New York, "functions as the personnel bureau of American society."

A monetary theorist, the bald and somewhat cherubic University of Chicago professor maintains that the U.S. and many other major nations mismanage their economies. They do so, he argues, by manipulating taxes, federal spending and money supply-techniques that were formulated by Britain's John Maynard Keynes. "Keynesian economics doesn't work," says Friedman. "But nothing is harder for men than to face facts that threaten to undermine strongly held beliefs...
