Reply #8: I always discourage students from reading for Management

[malaise]

Degrees or MBAs. I tell them to study something real.

I found a real propaganda effort to move students to management when we were being bombarded with the neo-liberal agenda. The irony of it is that 30 years later, the group losing jobs are the said management studies and business school graduates.

You make a good point re the financial wizards. They sure fucked up the system with complicity from right wing and center-right politicians.
