Education/Commerce: TrumpUSA DreamChip?

[Abishai100]

The Comparative Literature department at Yale University boasts many intensive and multi-disciplinary courses encouraging students to consider how modern age 'integration' of media and dynamic sourcing/citing of classical (e.g., Illiad) and also modern works (e.g., Animal Farm) informs our new age understanding of traffic-consciousness related intellectualism (e.g., Charlie Rose).

It's interesting how education in general (in America and across the globe) has changed in response to modern age developments regarding social discourse accessibility (e.g., Internet chat-rooms) and networking-couture (e.g., Facebook).

Wolverine (Marvel Comics) is a fictional American comic book 'mutant anti-hero' whose special metallic blades and hunting senses give him a great skill for tracking and 'scratching,' making him a symbol of the power of 'reach' or 'access.'

While 'wolfish' behaviors go back to even the Bible, modern age network-prowling sophistication 'accreditation' (e.g., NASDAQ) are imprinted onto 'commercialism-prowess' films such as The Wolf of Wall Street.

So since the 'tone' of intellectualism dialogue has changed, prestigious and respected colleges/universities such as Yale have adapted their curriculum to offer students valuable training in 'traffic-imagination.'

So how can we coordinate 'consumerism-imagination' (if there is such a thing!) with education-excitement in our arguably commerce-biased 'TrumpUSA'?

I'd write a comic book fan-fic about all this, but alas, my fiction days are at an end...

I look forward to neo-fantasia film-makers such as Ron Howard and George Clooney offering us fortune-vertigo storytelling gems though (e.g., Money Monster).

TRUMP: Yale Comp-Lit profs are teaching about media-translations of Dante, modern fables, and film-writing!
WOLVERINE: The world's changed, Mr. President, and everyone's 'scratching' to keep up...
TRUMP: Relax, Wolverine, there's nothing wrong with a bit of 'fast-paced' Starbucks erudition.
WOLVERINE: Is there such a thing as 'prestigious french fries,' Mr. Trump?
TRUMP: Sure! Did you know there's a video game version of Dante's Inferno now?
WOLVERINE: Well, I want to see the new Tom Hanks film Inferno (which alludes to similar 'concepts').
TRUMP: Discourse reflects the public's demand for 'traffic-training' (i.e., Wall Street).
WOLVERINE: Is money culture?
TRUMP: No, but culture is money...
WOLVERINE: Ha, that's interesting. Perhaps America is becoming the first 'Raceway Empire.'
TRUMP: I'd agree with you, and I support a patriotic cheering of general 'capitalism.' What about you?
WOLVERINE: I like iconic tales about fortune --- e.g., The Gift of the Magi, The Golden Arm, Treasure Island!
TRUMP: The Jim Carrey film The Truman Show looks at the paradoxical modern interest in 'celebrity spirit.'
WOLVERINE: Well, celebrities (e.g., movie stars) are sort of 'highway bishops' of capitalism/commerce.
TRUMP: Planet Hollywood culture has 'sanitized' what was once 'free-form piracy' (i.e., California Gold Rush).
WOLVERINE: That's really what the Tom Cruise sports-agency film Jerry Maguire is all about, Mr. President...
TRUMP: Maybe Gordon Gekko (from Oliver Stone's Wall Street) is the new Rasputin!
WOLVERINE: I'd like to see more horror-films about people losing money to 'Gestalt goblins'...
