The difference though is, "We are all Keynesians now", including Obama, no matter how many protest to the contrary about Obama. And I suggest HIGHLY people look up what a Keynesian is before they get on me for saying it. |
Well actually to be fair.... If you told John Maynard Keynes was alive now, and you told him you wanted to raise taxes on the rich, he'd probably slap the shit out of you. Tax increases should only ever come when the economy was is booming.
Obama has essentially moved from Keynsian economics too... I don't even know what you'd call it. The only term i could come up with is Neo-Liberal fantasy economics... and well, that's just insulting.
I can't think of a single economic theory that would support his debt ceiling negotiations position for example.
I feel like this might deserve it's own thread... but i'm not good enough to create a borderline trolling OP that generates discussion.
