Truth will ultimately prevail where there is pains to bring it to light." - George Washington

However, unlike Columbus, the ALI-MPC authors, with Kinsey’s aid, had mapped out well in advance how and where to use his scientific fraud in courts of law.

Legalizing adultery was the job of Kinsey’s black propaganda and, in time, the job of the educational arm of the American Bar Association, the American Law Institute Model Penal Code (ALI-MPC). The ALIMPC wanted to decriminalize adultery, opening the door to “open marriage,” “wife-swapping,” “swinging,” and “no-fault divorce.

Claiming adultery was widely practiced and trivial, Kinsey’s ALI-MPC lied and liberated men from their moral responsibility to their wives and children.

To understand a concept or idea better Students new to economics sometimes struggle to grasp the concept of the marginal propensity to consume (abbreviated as MPC). MPC is the proportion of additional disposable income (income after taxes and transfers) that an individual consumes. Even harder to understand is what a specific numerical value for MPC implies. In such situations, it helps to go to extreme cases to gain some intuitive feel for what the numbers mean. In this case, since the MPC is a proportion, the two extremes are 0 and 1. An MPC of 0 means that if an individual received an extra $100 of income, she would spend none of it. Think of Warren Buffett. He already has plenty of money to consume what he wants. If Berkshire Hathaway were to pay him an extra $100, he would not change his consumption. At the other extreme, an MPC of 1 means that if an individual received an extra $100 of disposable income, he would spend it all. Think of someone in extreme poverty. An extra $100 could go immediately to satisfy his basic needs. These extreme cases can help ground our understanding of MPC.[2]
