<<<Supply side economics ..... It is at best a temporary fix, like heroine, which needs constant injections to suffice, slowly destroying the economy in the process.>>>



I think the same could be said for Keynesian stimulating. While disallowing any readjustment during economic downturns, we just have lived in a world where more often and bigger stimulus have become the norm. But with constant Keynesian spending comes ever bigger debt. I don't think Keynes approved of huge debt. But I think this is the failing of Keynesian; how to you guarantee pay down of debt in good times?
