Er, um, don't you mean; "Keynesian" = "Screwed-up"? I've always considered those terms to be synonymous.

Anyone who tries to run anything, not to mention a nation, based on Keynesian economics is bound to fail from the outset. Its like the practice of letting blood in order to cure a disease. It does the opposite.

Human arrogance at its finest and yet another example of why central planning will always fail.

In addition, this whole unbalanced trade thing is due to abandoning the gold standard. So now, we put up with ridiculous tariffs that wont work to cover over the fact we have printed money to pay for Chinese goods. We print, they hold on it it, and therefore inflation of the us dollar is delayed. The chickens will come home to roost however, and the inflation the government created will come back in force- causing probably some additional actions to cover THAT over.

1st treasury secretary under Obama..Geitner...wrote book...they came within 48 hours of shutting down the ATMs and closing the banks in late 2008, before someone made them realize that that would be the end of civilization

The real reason why we haven't heard Keynes mentioned in a while is that the left has to continue to fake reality.

Because the left has to concentrate on fake news about Trump instead. Can't confuse the masses with reason or history.

I haven't heard Keynes mentioned in a while. Gee, I wonder why.

This was predicted by everyone who opposed the Federal Reserve act in 1912-1913.
