Re: Help me battle my teacher\'s indoctrination
Your teacher clearly is not being objective, and is presenting his own thoughts. Debating him in class seems like a good route, I'd just wait until you had a very strong line of points to make, about a subject you were very familiar with. I very recently learned that universities welcome students to approach department heads about problems with teachers. I've had some very [censored] teachers at my school, and plan to talk to the university about them before I graduate; I'd suggest you talk to someone about a professor blatantly spouting his own subjective beliefs.
I've read up on Enron and have been thinking about how this company might represent companies' actions in ACland. Ken Lay was a huge proponent of unregulated markets and Enron tended to follow this notion. Problem is that I have not studied AC enough and am not sure whether or not organizations like the FTC would arise or not. Even in ACland, there would likely be laws against the blatant deceit that ran rampant through Enron; as mentioned earlier, these guys seems like exceptions to human behavior: they were taking massive risks, and even in an unregulated market, those risks would still exist and deter crazy mofos.
The problem in ACland is if these guys just pay off the security companies.
