Shoot! I meant that in an exaggerated matter -- sorry, I didn't mean to sound serious... so, don't worry. ^_^ That's definitely not the reason I'm at college, and it's not directly what I'm learning -- it's just arguments that I can come up with, with psychological and mathematical factors. (And, I don't instigate -- it's just that there are several times when I've had radical propaganda shoved down my throat, and I haven't been able to give objective reasons as to why I disagree, so I normally remain silent.)
But, no -- I'm here so that I can get a job; I'm aiming to be mainly dealing with mathematics and statistics. [Economics itself is the study of how people with unlimited quantifiable wants (say, food for every day that you live) manage limited resources) -- or also how quantifiable wants might increase utility. But it doesn't have to be involved politically. Sorry I was taking the thread off-topic that way.]
ANYWAY, the video games business rivalries! Think of it this way -- if someone else had something you need to survive (e.g., resources to support a console on which you can develop software), and you value your survival over a rivalry, you'd do what you can to befriend 'em, no? (Sorta speaking with random words here -- but you get the idea, right?)
So... IT'S "FLITZ TIME" EVERYBODY! | RANK: SILVER | NEXT STAGE IS 8 |

I didn't meant to say that that your studies are worthless; I was saying that psychological damage is my field of expertise...
Monkey told you that.
