A Man for the Ages.. A man whose influence in economic thought championed the values of individual freedoms and choice.. In this day and age of social engineering and political control, his noble wisdom has never been more needed.. He is the light, the answer for freedom loving mankind.. If only we could turn on the light as his economic wisdom can save us all from the imposed destruction that government has wrought.. His wisdom will endure and pass the test of time, as mankind strives to raise the banner of liberty and to be free from political and economic tyranny.. Always remembered and never forgotten; his wisdom will endure in the hearts and minds of free men everywhere..
