Brainwashing class?

[krynd]

I am currently enrolled in an online microeconomics class at ITT. This is the second week in the class, and we're covering the government's involvement in the market. Instead of presenting an unbiased account of the government's possible interventions, I find that it's more of a brainwashing session.

The first part of the lesson is about how the government installs price ceilings and floors to control the market. Instead of simply saying this, and why it is sometimes necessary, the lesson implicitly remarks that it may be better for the market to regulate itself. When the lesson covers minimum wage (price floor), it even says that this can be detrimental to the market, as it may increase unemployment.

I haven't yet read the second part of the lesson, but am sure it will come across as a pro-corporation brainwashing session. After all, why should someone be paid an honest wage when it cuts into your profits? Never mind that there are actual people in your statistics and that many of these people come from the very demographic you cater to.

Someone at ITT failed to notice that, I suppose.

Welcome to IT Takes Time!!! Ya i had that microeconomics class. You otta read about it, my teacher said he was a realitor, then a salesman, then he was a professor at ASU. The guy turned the class into a polictical discussion! Politics is government, but government is not politics.

Hey look in your book, I BET 500 bucks that your missing at least 10 chapters, your book will jump from ch11 to 21 or something like that. The page numbers will jump too.

lol wait until you see that stupid Jail scenario about ratting out your friend if you go free.

Your sig is so true, 1/3 to 1/2 of the people at the tempe, az campus had some form of body art.
But afford to go somewhere else. This is a common misconception, ITT is 3x more expensive than your state university, and it can be worse with the High interest loans.
