Summary
I started teaching a class that was designed to pit the ideology of socialism against that of capitalism using economic theory. 1 From day one, I encountered barriers. I started teaching a class that was designed to pit the ideology of socialism against that of capitalism using economic theory. More than a few of my students’ other professors had major problems with me introducing capitalist ideology into an economics class. I found that many students refused to be open minded about what I was teaching; they could not hear what I had to say over the loud noise of their liberal professors complaining that I was propagandizing their students by teaching capitalism. The third, and most impenetrable barrier, was determining if I was making any headway into students’ thinking processes. I had no test to see if I was changing students’ minds about capitalism; I didn’t know if I was making a difference
