Actual comment by a colleague of mine over lunch, not intended as humor:
I firmly believe that every citizen of this country should read Thucydides.
Frankly, I’d regard it as a major accomplishment if I could get 100% of my own students to pronounce “Thucydides.”
I don’t think my colleague has heard of Bryan Caplan. Honestly, I was afraid to ask.
