How About "Law of Supply and Demand" Day

This past Saturday (Sept. 17) we celebrated Constitution Day, on which, among other things, schools are required to devote time to educating students about the Constitution. This is inarguably a good thing, given that the Constitution is the seminal document of our democratic governance and that most young people know not a lick about it (older people too for that matter). It couldn't come at a better time given some of the severe attacks on the Constitution of late and the perversions of it that we as citizens have to endure.

Well, given that we live in a free-market, capitalist society (and even if we didn't) and that most young people know not a lick about economics (older people too for that matter), how about a national day of forced learning about some other seminal principles? It couldn't come at a better time given some of the severe attacks these principles have taken of late and the perversions that we as citizens have to endure.
