Actually, bland took macroeconomics in graduate school during the first year of Reagan's presidency. The text was quite even-handed and balanced, and a special supplement focused extensively on the supply-side theory and its proponents (Laffer, Wanisky, Kemp, etc.). Until that time (his twenty-third year) bland was as liberal as you could get. It was that class, more than any other, that showed him how naive and unrealistic his previous ideas had been. Had he been introduced to the subject earlier in his education, he certainly would have benefited from it...provided that arguments from both sides were presented. Basic economics should be taught in high school, there is far more to be gained than lost by doing so. I suspect that I would be only slightly happier with what you reference. The reference to macroeconomics makes it likely that you are indeed talking about two sides of the same coin. My expectation is that the coin is counterfeit. mises.org laissezfairebooks.com Regards, Don
