So, I went to the presentation challenging BB&T’s offerings made to schools contingent upon the teaching of capitalism featuring the works of Adam Smith and Ayn Rand. Several capitalists came to crash the party, and they dominated the floor to the point that the anarchists cried, “Unfair!”

It seems kids these days are being taught that the Founding Fathers were slave-holding Indian killers who raped the land and exploited labor. Capitalism is considered synonymous with cronyism. Laissez-faire capitalism is just an ideal. It is impossible because money-grubbing robber barons will destroy everything unchecked for the bottom line.

The most exciting moment was when one intellectual threatened a member of the press with expletives if he took his picture. John North, publisher of the Daily Planet, said he believed in freedom of the press and refused to be censored. The intellectual made a lunge toward North. Tim Peck said he would expletive the intellectual if he expletived North. Since the meeting was run by consensus, the mediator asked if anybody else did not want their picture taken. One girl asked to be able to delete all pictures with her image because of the personal and passionate nature of the discussions. North said the camera and the newspaper were his.
