  Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Milton Friedman   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
Friedman wrote extensively on the Great Depression, which he called the "Great Contraction," arguing that it had been caused by an ordinary financial shock whose duration and seriousness were greatly increased by the subsequent contraction of the money supply caused by the misguided policies of the directors of the Federal Reserve.
Friedman defends his role in Chile on the grounds that the move towards open market policies not only improved the economic situation in Chile but also contributed to the softening of Pinochet's rule and to its eventual replacement by a democratic government in 1990.
Friedman was criticized for visiting those countries in 1976 and meeting with members of pro-Apartheid government without publicly calling for repealing the racist electoral laws that were then in place.

 Modern Guitars Magazine: Ross the Boss Interview
Lead guitarist Ross the Boss (though his real last name is Friedman, he was renamed 'Funicello' for the band's first CD by then manager, Sandy Pearlman), as well as the other members of the band, have become punk icons.
Ross the Boss, however, is a quintessential player, deserving of the title 'lead guitarist'.
Ross: It is. I think the whole CD really captures the energy of the band, how 'in your face' we are, with severe attitude.

 Manowar gallery
Manowar was founded by Joey DeMaio and Australian-born axeman Ross the Boss (formerly of Dictators and Shakin' Street) in New York late 1980.
Much to my devastation, this was the last record for the Boss to conduct his wizardry on before parting, thus making it the last album with the "classic" line-up.
Although it cuts me up inside to admit, the two who did leave (Ross the Boss and Scott Columbus) are probably the ones I would agree are "least important" for Manowar's war machine to function.

On Triumph Ross is replaced by David Schankle and Scott by Rhino (I don't really like the result).
Ross joined Dick Manitoba (ex-Dictators) in Manitoba's Wild Kingdom and made a decent punk oriented hard rock album, or hard rock oriented punk album any way you want in 1991 called "...And You?".

 LiberalOasis: Archives For The Week of Sept. 25, 2005
Instead, LO turns your attention to yesterday’s particularly egregious Tom Friedman column in the NY Times about the future of Iraq.
In Friedman’s world, the Sunnis are now the bad guys and the Shiites are the good guys, because it’s the Sunnis practicing ethnic cleansing.
Now, instead of admitting his flawed arguments, exploring how to defuse the growing ethnic strife, and fixing the problem he helped create, he is trying to compound his errors by drumming up support for a second layer of carnage — based on gross generalizations and false notions of good guys and bad.

Roy Ross, CEO of the Marlborough, Mass., company, said in a statement that tenacious opposition by the Ohio Civil service Employees Association contributed to the state's decision to pull the plug on Civigenics' $14.9 million contract to run the North Coast Correctional Treatment facility in Grafton.
Ross said his company had a difficult time fighting qualified staff members, in part because the union successfully challenged Civigenics' efforts to have its private employees trained by state workers.

Not to mention guitarist Ross Friedman, AKA Ross The Boss.
I think Manowar was better when R. Friedman aka Ross the Boss did more writing but we all know Joey DeMaio (the most underappreciated rock bassist) is a control freak egomaniac and limited Ross' input.
Battle Hymns has never been surpassed by Manowar, nor most bands, it's an epic masterpiece which had their most intelligent lyrics (Death Tone, Shellshock) and set up the notch for fast fingers (William's Tale) and I was fortunate to see them on the Battle Hymns tour.

While the Hymans may have turned the course of history, they were, in fact, part of a chain of Jewish musicians.
Although the Hymans had many influences, none were greater than the proto-punkers Richard Blum and Ross Friedman.
(To be sure, the Ramones were populated by more gentiles than Jews.) Blum and Friedman, stalwarts of The Dictators, remade themselves as Handsome Dick Manitoba and Ross the Boss.

Karl Logan is by far better than this guy used to be even though neither of them can top Ross "the boss" Friedman.
Yeah, Ross really had the greatest influence when creating the sounds back in the Battle Hyms days.

Now, I really don't mean this as a "nyah-nyah, both sides are dumb." Rather, I'm positing that the identity between conservative culture and conservative kitsch strikes an intelligent observer like Perlstein as perfectly clear, and that this is at least somewhat interesting.
Back in 2004, Ross wrote on the failed efforts (thus far) of conservatives to reshape the culture, but he was referring to high culture and pop culture, not the relative potency of conservative kitsch.
You'd be far better served by reading Ross.

Besides Osama, whose Al Qaeda subsid in Qatar long ago announced its endorsement of the incumbent's re-election ("his stupidity and religious fundamentalism will be beneficial to the Islamic Cause"), the Bushites were sanctified by that astute Christian theologian Karl Rove.
Winning the popular vote was inimical to the Bush gang's strategy of re-occupying the White House in the face of worldwide clamor for their eviction.
Ross will speak at Evergreen in Olympia Washington Nov. 19th, Laughing Horse Books in Portland Nov. 22nd, and Simon Fraser University and the Vancouver Public Library Nov. 25th-26th (if Canadian authorities choose to admit him.)
