That's not the question I asked, Fez. I didn't ask you to endorse it, I asked you a basic economics question.

And JohnT, if there were no philosophers, who would be able to point out to you the idiocy of reading Ayn Rand.

Most Keynesists support further government interference with the economy, support taxing and spending, and support establishing more government programs. That's what FDR did. He used those ideas.

I declared my major when applying.


You mean you've declared your intention to have PoliSci as your major and Econ as your minor. As you are a, what 18? 19? year old freshman, I'll go back to that statement being worth between jack and sh**.

Or maybe when I was a freshman, I was doing a triple major in history, political science and math because I took multiple courses in each.

You are a moron. I can do that. I already have. Okay, I'll be honest. I haven't declared my minor yet, but my major is declared. It is in my records.

Yeah, but that's nothing compared to the perpetual rage you were in, when you were still confused about your sexuality.

You have just suffered a deep disappointment, but you are overall much more balanced than before.

His point is you have declared your intention for that major, but you have not graduated yet so you do not have it. Hell, you're still a freshmen.

Thus it is worth jack ****.

I have declared my intention for this major. And I am not changing it. Is that a problem? Is there something wrong with that? Canadians are dumb. I thought all you guys could produce was mapel syrup.. not stupidity aswell. Is that one of your leading industries?

Ah, well, I'm trained in the very useful art of bullshitting convincingly, and I know how to sum up info, which is surprisingly useful if you assist an always-hurried big shot.

You still don't get it.

The "problem" with it is you using it as some sort of credential. You've gone through one term with a declared major in political science -- that doesn't mean you're an expert or should be able to use that as some credential like you did.

You don't need to be a poli-sci major to be trained in the very useful art of bullshitting.

I do that to make myself look smart. Now can we get onto something else? At least I am honest now. I know more about cute guys, than I do about politics.

I realize you did it to look smart, that much was obvious. What was much more obvious was how it had the opposite effect.

Give Asher the cupie doll.

Fez, until you have taken at least one upper level course requirement for your major, your transcript might as well say your major is ballroom dancing.

Well, in France, Poli Sci is taught differently as in ordinary universities, and you don't bother with theories, methodolgy, and useless crap like that. The whole 5-years programme is about learning how quickly gather'n'digest info so that you can look like a savant on each and every topic.

I spent 2 years of my student's time in Germany, meaning that I'm no master in this art, but I still fathom me as being pretty good

It takes more database queries to find the post, then change it, then save it than it takes to just add a new one to the end.
