  • In Defense of a Liberal Education
    In Defense of a Liberal Education FAREED ZAKARIA W. W. NORTON & COMPANY New York • London For my children, Omar, Lila, and Sofia We are drowning in information, while starving for wisdom. The world henceforth will be run by synthesizers, people able to put together the right information at the right time, think critically about it, and make important choices wisely. —E. O. Wilson Contents 1: Coming to America 2: A Brief History of Liberal Education 3: Learning to Think 4: The Natural Aristocracy 5: Knowledge and Power 6: In Defense of Today’s Youth Notes Acknowledgments In Defense of a Liberal Education 1 Coming to America IF YOU WANT to live a good life these days, you know what you’re supposed to do. Get into college but then drop out. Spend your days learning computer science and your nights coding. Start a technology company and take it public. That’s the new American dream. If you’re not quite that adventurous, you could major in electrical engineering. What you are not supposed to do is study the liberal arts. Around the world, the idea of a broad-based “liberal” education is closely tied to the United States and its great universities and colleges. But in America itself, a liberal education is out of favor. In an age defined by technology and globalization, everyone is talking about skills-based learning. Politicians, businesspeople, and even many educators see it as the only way for the nation to stay competitive. They urge students to stop dreaming and start thinking practically about the skills they will need in the workplace.

  • Price Controls on Pharma
    Resolved: The United States federal government should impose price controls on the Pharmaceutical industry Affirmation Blocks POOR PEOPLE The pharmaceutical industry is literally killing off poor people Hartmann et. al 15 Thomas Carl "Thom" Hartmann is an American radio host, author, former psychotherapist, businessman, and progressive political commentator. Daily Take Team, 6-3-2015, "Big Pharma Is Killing Us," Truthout, http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/31160-big-pharma-is-killing-us //GF DDI 17 Drug company profits are literally killing people - and now even doctors are speaking out. Dr. Leonard Saltz, chief of gastrointestinal oncology at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, rebuked the pharmaceutical industry for the sharp rise in cancer drug prices over the last decade. The median monthly price for new cancer drugs nearly doubled between 2000 and 2014 - from a monthly cost of $4,716 between 2000 and 2004 to a monthly cost of about $9,900 between 2010 and 2014. Dr. Saltz explained part of the problem: "Cancer-drug prices are not related to the value of the drug. Prices are based on what has come before and what the seller believes the market will bear." See more news and opinion from Thom Hartmann at Truthout here. And that's a neat feature of our current patent system: Drug companies don't have to worry about what people can afford to pay for a product. Because monopolies set their own prices. And that's what a patent is: a state-backed monopoly on a product. Thomas Jefferson knew that monopolies would be a threat to the people and the people's government.

International affairs professor Robert Gilpin confirms in 2013 that if US hegemony declines and China becomes a challenger, a war between the US and China is practically guaranteed, as no dominant state in history has ever relinquished its position without a fight and no rising power has ever established itself as dominant without winning a great power war. Professor of political science Caitlin Talmadge furthers in 2016 that because China and the US would be unable to distinguish between conventional strikes and attempts to destroy the other’s nuclear capability, a US China war would have a high chance of going nuclear.
