Is Keynesian Economics the worst meme to date?
>debt
>spending will fix this!
I've been told that Keynesian economics only advocates low taxes and aggressive spending in a recession, and high taxes with conservative spending during economic surges.
Of course the government is stuck in low taxes and aggressive spending full time. What worries me is I never see Keynesians bitch about this, only right wing schools.

It's a medium-long term ponzi scheme, use the new generation of taxpayers to pay for benefit of the old ones.
The great part about it is that it enables stability because the government can control their people economically by providing safety nets.
This leads to huge profits as they're exploit third world labor due to low levels of conflict and eventually control everything.
The financial system is so interlinked now, that billions become victim in the never ending effort to pay off previous debts.

Jobs are a form of social welfare my man
>spending will fix this
I'm the short term, this is true. Ya, it doesn't do shit in the long term, but sometimes all you need is a few years of stabilization so actual gdp increases like tech and capital and labor can catch up.
Stop reading Austrian propaganda.

In the long term, things stabilize. Solving a depression can take a decade if you let it be or 2 years if you take the correct action now.
Yes, the highs aren't as high and the lows aren't as low. But doomsaying about inevitable collapse because we pushed demand out artificially for a few quarters , as though we need to be punished for our sins, is a very puritanical viewpoint and not actually verifiable.
