A memorable college moment in the 1970s was when I walked up to my economics professor and said "You do know there is one economist out there who disagrees with everything you said--you have heard of Ludwig Von Mises, right?
The prof looked at me like I was speaking Chinese, paused and thought about for a moment, and said, "Nope, never heard of the guy".
The leftist indoctrination that made that happen goes back to the 1950s at least.
Some Von Mises books btw, must reading if you want to claim to know _anything_ about economics:

Other classics by Mises:
Socialism
The Anti-Capitalistic Mentality
The Theory of Money and Credit
Bureaucracy
Planned Chaos
Economic Calculation in the Socialist Commonwealth

They all have blinders... I am certain that I have read more about both socialism/communism and against socialism/communism than any of the professors I had.
They were narrow minded and completely one-dimensional in their views and actual scope of knowledge about the subject.
THEY only read the stuff t for them-so they were hostile and responded defensively if you had some other view. Very childish.
