My economics course used Samuelson. The professor was Asian and what I 
remember most from the course was his use of the Prima Corporation as his 
favorite example. Not being very interested I though it was some 
multinational like ITT.  Then one day it was clarified when he used Prima, 
Chery, and Ford in a sentence.

I was amused many years later when GM sued Chery for copying a Chevy.

Had Plymouth not been discontinued there might be a Prima too. 

Other than that I classed economics with statistics are required BS 
courses.
