    Reminds me of a story I heard secondhand. A university trustee and a professor were chatting. The trustee, a local businessman, is extolling the virtues of a free market economy and turns to the professor, saying “maybe your own view is different, you being a socialist and all.”

    To which the professor replied, “uh, I”m a sociologist.”
