Well yes I could google Keynes, but unlike some on here I would not feel like doing a google makes me well versed in something that complicated.

However I have been looking around and found this opinion from the guy you all were telling me about the other day.

I do have to say even though I am no expert I tend to think if the economy is tanking this bad we should take some action, as opposed to twiddling our thumbs like those on the right seem so sure is right.

No one mentioned Paul Krugman.

And there are those who disagree with Krugman on the effect of stimulus spendin has on economic growth and unemployment.

Give this a read if you dare.

I think you're the guy who keeps bringing up Krugman, Sherm. Sure as hell isn't me.

If you're truly interested in learning about economics, this website is a great place to begin.

Sure, if you want to get the opinion of the Lunatic Fringe of laissez faire economics.

If it were possible to lift real economic growth by means of money pumping, world poverty would have been eradicated a long time ago.

From the Lunatic Fringe of laissez faire economics website.

So tell me BMD, is that not a true statement, and if not, how is it false?
