The Weekly Podcast: Schwarzenegger -- A Milton Friedman Fan, Not An Economic "Girlie Man"

"Now there's another way you can tell you're a Republican. You have faith in free enterprise, faith in the resourcefulness of the American people, and faith in the U.S. economy. And to those critics who are so pessimistic about our economy, I say: 'Don't be economic girlie men!'"

California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger – speaking at the 2004 Republican National Convention..

Quite a choice: Free enterprise or economic girlie men.

Wondering who inspired Arnold Schwarzenegger's economic view of the world?

The answer: Milton Friedman.
