I had that moment in the fall of 1980 when the Poli Sci prof was talking about “workers controlling the means of production.” It was instantly obvious he’d never spent a day in the real world. Having worked commercial construction all summer, I knew turning the means of production to the guys at Rome Builders was a bad idea.

It was apparent to me that guys like Prof. Hansen saw a political means to seize control over economic assets they had no idea how to create or operate. It was theft, and as usual, the thief was going to trash the goods he stole.

I bet your professor could not in his wildest dreams imagine that in the future "science" would mandate that only socialism could reduce the Earth's temperature and avert a climate crisis.

There has been so much junk science since the WWI and WWII era I often reflect on the severe shock that era delivered to the West and the effects we are still feeling in all the phony scientific and political solutions people grasp at to try to avert the next war, which will probably come sooner due to their foolishness.
