P.S. You can get a hint of Keynes’ “Johnny-come-lately” status simply by observing that his magnum-opus, “The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money” wasn’t even published until 1936, two-thirds of the way through the Great Depression and much too late to be used as a legislative excuse for the pre-1920s Federal Reserve enabled paper money inflation that preceded and powered “The Roaring 20s” which in turn caused the hangover we call “The Great Depression.”
Keynes, who many suggest was, in his later life, an anti-Keynesian as a result of how it was being practiced, had become the icon and figurehead; an excuse for funding bureaucrats and politicians to unconstitutionally meddle in our affairs and afford wars — and for banksters and connected businesses to profit.
See, Keyns’ idea was that governments at least pay back their spending sprees, not keep the tab running to today’s (2022 A.D.) $30 trillion or so U.S. “National” Debt. And then there’s the more than $100 trillion in unfunded liabilities, mostly owed to old folks in the form of the Social so-called “Security” Ponzi scheme and Medicare, theoretically pre-paid by the F.I.C.A. etc. taxes you’ve already paid and see charged on your pay stub.
P.P.S. Apparently, Josh, you mistake someone disagreeing with your seriously unsound ideas — and supplying evidence — as lying?
