Typical Jour100 course: Twisting the truth so that the Socialist view is correct.
My view is that what the journalism student learns is how to promote journalism. And that boils down to criticizing and second guessing everyone who actually does anything. And that turns out to be the soul of socialism.

For example, "government ownership of the means of production" cannot make the "means of production" and it can't even develop the actual product which is to be produced. Socialism takes all prior successful development for granted, and simply takes away the credit for it. But note well, the failures which were an integral part of the development of a successful product are to be swept down the memory hole, and the successes are "inevitable." With the natural result that reason to undertake risk for future development is suppressed - and the socialist country must thereafter follow capitalist countries.
