You are correct, but when somebody quotes Milton Friedman and says things like "have faith in the free market", you're probably not going to change their mind with a quote from Keynes.

The point is not to change their minds, it's to change the mind of anyone who may happen to read both quotes.

Whys that? Is that an offensive thing to say? You seem to think I'm incapable of changing my mind, why? You don't know me, and you think you do. Unbecoming behavior.

EDIT: And downvotes, too? I've been insulted, and I don't take kindly too it, yet I deserve to be downvoted? Thats ridiculous.
