Wow these kids are stupid!

They walked out on one of the most famous Neo-Keynesians in the world because he wasn't offering enough Keynesian enough for them. I mean this is the guy that actually recommended that FFR should go negative(that is crazy stupid Keynesian right there).

Greg Mankiw's intro books that are used all over the country are Keynesian books. They believe in the validity of the Philips Curve(which is the only model in modern American history to be 100% completely torn to shreds by events), it teaches government stimulus models, and its pretty dovish on monetary policy and that is just the intro to Macro book.

The point about reading on Harvard or another of the elite university isn't for the vast majority students about what they learn, but that the name is on their diplom afterward and the connections they have gotten while studying there.
