In the long run, you are correct. I’m not a Keynesian, but I do think there is a lot of wisdom in his theories. Democrats hear his theories and only hear “license for deficit spending during recessions” and Republicans have been failing to be the party that does the opposite. It’s kinda like on Seinfeld when George walks up one day and discovers that he should be doing the opposite of his every instinct. When the GOP starts acting like the opposite of the Democrats and plays the role of Smokey Bear instead of Fire Marshall Bill, I’ll be a happy camper. For now, I’ll just stick with the team until we get a coach who knows what the **** he’s doing. Bush is our Charlie Weiss. Bring back the Gipper.
Well I more lean toward Rothbard, Mises and the Austrian School, but I guess that’s something we can disagree on (I don’t feel like arguing about it now), Though IMO Keynsianism is what got us into this mess in the first place. Anyway I agree that we need to form a STRONG opposition!
