I'll guess you'll have to name-call somewhere else now. Do yourself a favor and open your mind, and rethink the liberal ideology that caused you to resort to such a crass insult.

Andy--have you read the whole set of notes? EVERYTHING pretty much gets mentioned in a "a narrow, understated manner." The notes are very obviously outlines, and not transcripts of a lecture--moreover, this is obviously an introductory/survey-level course where the goal is quite obviously to introduce studnets to the broad ideas--not to give an in-depth analysis of any one economic idea.

:You're right that the notes are merely outlines, rather than lectures.  I'll make that point next.  But what the notes do say about the Coase theorem is a very narrow view of it.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 16:55, 31 January 2010 (EST)

: No, not in a course on [[microeconomics]].  Check out MIT's course on [[macroeconomics]] and I'm sure it worships Keynes.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 16:56, 31 January 2010 (EST)

::[http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Economics/14-02Fall-2004/CourseHome/index.htm Wrong]. He's not mentioned in the lecture notes at all, at least in the most recent macro survey.. [[User:AlexWD|AlexWD]] 17:06, 31 January 2010 (EST)

Yeah well, apples and oranges. The course you're picking on for not having enough Coase is "14.01 Principles of Microeconomics." 14-452 (not 12, as you wrote), is a course on Macroeconomic Theory--and quite obviously at a  more advanced and in-depth level.

:::Those aren't principals or theories, those are THINGS THAT EXIST IN REALITY. Theories would be IDEAS about those objective phenomena. What are you, simple or something? 18:05, 31 January 2010 (EST)

:And "Keynesian" is mentioned another 46 times.  Next look at ''how'' they are mentioned.  To liberals, the failed economics of "Keynes" and "Keynesian", which ruined England, is worshiped and taught as thought it were somehow Gospel Truth.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 20:13, 31 January 2010 (EST)
