Is he Keynesian?

[Fishfriend1]

This'll be FUUUUN! WHEEEEE!

just felt like saying that. I have no opinions on Obama except that he needs to improve his dancing abilities.

I don't understand the commotion here. Are some of you people mixing up Kenyan (nationality) with Keynesian (economic policy)? As far as keynesian economics goes, most democrats and republicans probably support it (except maybe for Ron Paul - but don't quote me on that, since I'm not too familiar with his stances).

Seeing as the last 5 threads about global warming have had to be closed I would think the commotion is because the track record of even potentially controversial topics getting out of hand in GCC isn't exactly a great one...

You do realize you just issued a challenge, not a request...right?


Anyways. I'd say the better question is whether he exists at all. I for one question whether any of the people I see/hear about/etc. exist. Just seem so very convenient for them to exist. Plus the fact that they insist on stating that they exist is suspicious. It's exactly what you'd expect someone who doesn't exist to say! I say he doesn't really exist and that the world is actually run by badgers. Angry badgers. Very angry badgers.

The badgers may or may not be Keynesian. It's hard to tell really.

The reason that the Keynesian model falls flat are that it introduces a middleman (the govt) into the economy which like all middlemen takes a cut. This is done because allegedly the middleman knows better than Mr Smith's Invisible Hand where money is supposed to go. So now there's less money to go into the economy than if the middleman didn't get his cut, and what money is there invariably goes to the friends of the middleman rather than where it belongs. The two fatal conceits of the Keynesian economic model.

The debate over the lack of merits of a keynesian economic model is where this will all go to "H" "E" double toothpicks."
