The pro-business candidate?

rudyguiliani.jpgSo, Steve Forbes thinks that Rudy Giuliani is the best free market candidate in the upcoming U.S. Presidential election.

Forbes is wrong. As noted in earlier posts here and here, Giuliani has a legacy of dubious prosecutions of businesspeople -- most prominently Michael Milken -- to further his own career. Forbes' failure to mention Giuliani's duplicity in the prosecution of one of the most important and productive businesspersons of the latter part of the 20th century reflects a troubling blindspot and a very short memory.
