In reply to the discussion: Professor causes uproar asking Biden voters to unfriend him [View all]salin
(48,958 posts)Nearly 20 years later he texted me from an evening course for his MBA program: "Was Morfar a Keynesian?" "Why yes he was... " I responded. I was rather stunned. Later I asked him - he was in a lecture that was explaining Keynesian economic theories and he remembered my dad/his Morfar explaining that he was going to buy a car at that time because he thought it would help stimulate the economy. This was during the 1991 recession. He was 7 years old. My Dad was a bit of a force of nature when he explained things. Lol.
And his grandson - is quite liberal in his economic, millennial views. My dad would be proud.
Thanks for sparking that memory, and indulging me in sharing it.
*Morfar = mother's father from our norwegian american tradition.
