#WR: China and Freedom! @WSJ in an opinion column titled “Was Milton Friedman Wrong About China? William McGurn returns to the analysis that the famous economist Friedman made in 2003 about the economic Chinese growth. Friedman thought wrong that economy and freedom run together.
According to the Wall Street Journal, Milton Friedman said: "I predict that China will move increasingly toward political freedom if it continues its successful move to economic freedom. "
The last events related to Hong Kong and the goal of President Xi to take Taiwan shows that till now, China didn't evolve to a political freedom. Instead of this, the initiatives of Beijing are going in the opposite direction. What do you think?
