I disagreed with the conventional ways some of the economic questions were framed, but I also know the right "conventional" answers to the most often posed "conventional" questions.

I been around the block a couple of times. Heh, heh.

Keynesian economics is the only flavor available on college campuses.

When I took macroeconomics back in the day, we had a nice young adjunct teaching the class to us.

He was a confident, competent instructor who gave well organized lectures. One day though, the Fed and money creation was on the syllabus, and his talk got really weird. So weird that I remember it today many years later. I don't think that he wandered far off the "conventional" on the topic, but his voice started to tremble in spots and he was unaccountably jittery in his presentation. His performance was really out of character from what I'd become used to.

He was teaching like his job was on the line. I got the impression that he'd been advised how to present this material. Perhaps he had wandered outside the "conventional" boundaries in the past.
