Professor Elam

Walter Williams and Tom Sowell are two fo my favories. IN this columnh Prof Williams lays out his rules for running an effective class. He also mentions several fallacies that foks can engage in, such as assuming if this then that. For example, every day we hear the media assume some outside factor acted upon the collective conscious causing markets to move one way or the other.  For example, investors snapped up stock bargains…while just yesterday those same investors were selling them as fast as they could. We will be discussing multiple points of view in the Ethics class, reading this column is a good start on keeping our perspective.

Sure enough I found a great, as usual, Tom Sowell column and linked it too, read what he says about politicians promising the impossible.
