The Man, The Moustache, The Macroeconomic Miracle Maker: Thomas Friedman Through the Millennia

Posted in Miscellaneous by Jason J. Crawford on January 24, 2010

Fun with Tommy Friedman:

  • Thomas Friedman today: “Folks, we need to understand that a ‘Green technological’ revolution will integrate us synergystically into the global economy while allowing venture capitalists to improve the international community with low cost energy solutions to build infrastructure and lift everyone up from their problems. That’s why we need to give Al Gore and his mission support to see where this goes.”
  • Thomas Friedman 100 years ago: “Fellow man, we stand before a monumental change and the industrial age will propel us into the future. With the spirit of American ingenuity at the command of powerful business titans, we can make America the economic empire of the world. That is why we must yield support to Rockefeller and see where his towering enterprise goes.”
  • Thomas Friedman 200 years ago: “Fere, I doth believes ye plantation economy and cotton engine shalt bring a fullsome bounty to many a property master. Henceforth we must bequeath support to Eli Whitney and see where this goes.”
