Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me that "most economists" are Keynesian in their viewpoint these days. That explains a LOT of the economic mess around the world - be it here, Greece, France, Spain, Portugal.
I'm curious as to where the Greeks should get the money which all the Keynesian folks want them to spend. Do they just print it? Do they try to get people to buy bonds? Do they guilt Germany and France and the EU into giving a drunk a drink to cure him of his alcoholism? Or does money really grow on trees in the "World of Keynes"?
From a Yahoo news article off the AP wire a week or so ago: Since 1985 or thereabouts, France's unemployment rate has been below 8% for a whopping total of 16
months - out of about 25
years. Sixteen months of unemployment below 8% during an entire generation of workers. Is this what "Obamanomics", Obamacare, Paul Krugman and KeithE's economic policies have in store for us? (rhetorical question)
