I too agree that the points raised in our economic debates and discourse are mostly a sham. And I too agree that there is broad consensus around the basics of economic policy. But therein lies the rub. I remember in my undergraduate and graduate economics classes, that we were taught what a great thing the Federal Reserve was and how sophisticated our economists were in managing our economy. Most economists today were taught that Keynesianism was the "most right" theory. So no wonder that even those economist who claim to dislike Keynes' theories, will stand up and praise the Fed for a job well done. You're incorrigible. You'd rather believe some nut jobs on the internet that respected professionals. You mind is closed and you have become reactionary.
