If Keynesianism really worked for the 99%, then my income would have dropped over the last 6 years and you'd see the incomes of the 99% increase. But the exact opposite has happened Why would it? The 1% are part of the population and as the economy recovers, the economic pie gets larger. So they are bound to benefit. Your view of economics is way too narrow and constricting. Money printing (QE), low interest rates, stimulus spending, in short, Keynesianism, has been a bonanza for people like me. Long term, it will kill our economy and the 99%. Congratulations. You got what you wanted (Keynesianism) and the results are not what you wanted. Instead, you are getting what I told you you'd get. Too bad, you aren't educated enough to understand you are getting screwed. You were sold a pile of shit and told it was filet mignon. Enjoy your feast. Since 2008, over on the Obama thread, all you talked about when mentioning Keynes is that it wouldn't work; that there would be deflation; then inflation...........you tried to prove the latter with your wife's chicken buying habits; that it wouldn't benefit the average joe. In the last 7 years, you have been proven wrong every step of the way. The recovery is in place and getting stronger........nothing short of a miracle considering we experienced a terrible recession thanks to your colleagues. You claim to be an expert when it comes to economics but I have yet to see it, dude. So sorry
