Though still controversial, vouchers today can be discussed among polite company. The same applies to the Friedmans’ call for the separation of retirement and state. Republicans and even some Democrats now recommend privatizing Social Security, a notion once only whispered. Some of Milton Friedman’s former University of Chicago students introduced private pensions to Chile and have helped spread them to Argentina, England, Mexico and beyond.

    What’s next? In an interview at their modest office at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution, the cutting-
