Someone correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't Meese's "corruption" accepting a gold watch from the Japanese?
As an aside, I'm taking a micro-economics class this fall. God help me.
I'm 36. I took a micro class last year at the local community college. I took the time during the spring semester to take a full-time schedule. It was a blast.
The teacher would toss out something that was leftist drivel, and I'd counter it. She would get angry about it and start to challenge me, and I'd just back it up with fact after fact after fact. Eventually, she'd say something, and then look at me and ask for the "reality" of the situation, because she knew the other students were listening to me, not her, and were aware that the drivel wouldn't sell anymore.
When I got done with the semester (finished with a 112 average, as she gave bonus points whenever a student could best her in a debate) I went to her office and had a talk with her. She said that she was going to reevaluate how she tought her students and from what I understand, she's now a regular reader here.
