If the wave got sparked in 1980, then something happening in 1979 isn’t Reaganomics, right?

And again:

the problem appears not to be privatization, but transition to for-profit. Do you understand that part of what I’m saying? You seem to be ignoring it.

Secondly, I don’t feel I need a Chicago style of annotation. A link is good enough if the source is Wiki.

Well, it really doesn’t matter what you feel. When you don’t quote properly, you confuse what you wrote with what other people wrote. I have no way of telling, in the above post, what is your opinion/reporting and what is someone else’s. It’s unclear, and confusing, and you could easily prevent that just by properly quoting what is someone else’s words.

It’s also unethical to present someone else’s work as your own.
