>>Then why don't you just make a list of your Favorite Figures of the 20th Century?

Marilyn Monroe and Ursula Undress.

>>Keynes was clearly just about the most INFLUENTIAL economist of the 20th century, whether one approves of Keynsianism or not.

I thought Keynes and Keynesianism were put to rest when Richard Nixon famously declared that "We're all Keynesians now". What was that, 1971?

Of course, many argue that the politicians distorted Keynesianism. Still, you cannot quite get past Keynes's own declaration "In the long run we're all dead" as a paean to such. (Keynes's justification for not studying long run effects.)
