Here's a sample of how I think: https://medium.com/the-national-discussion/how-to-stop-the-plutocracy-game-index-the-top-1-s-tax-rates-to-decreasing-inequality-a3a19f42cd97
I did most of a PhD in history and then quit to get an MBA when I discovered I like entrepreneurship by running a business while a UCLA grad student. When I taught undergrads at UCLA one of my women students who was a comedian at The Comedy Store on Melrose Avenue did a comedy sketch about women's bread riots in the French Revolution instead of writing a conventional paper.
A couple of years later I published this about the Barcelona women's consumer war of 1918: https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0112n90m#author
When I taught at Riga Business School my history students put on Lysistrata, the Aristophanes play about the women of Greece going on a sex strike to stop the Peloponesian War, turning the last act into a rap musical. I got in trouble with the devoutly Catholic sex-averse Argentine director of the BBA program. I told him if I didn't have absolute academic freedom he should fire me here and now. He didn't.
But I'm now a bit old for getting into good trouble. I limit it to the basketball court and writing.
