It will be eagerly received by all wing-nuts.

You are not arguing with me. You are arguing with John Maynard Fucking Keynes. That's your right, but please understand what you are doing.

If your intention is to mount an expose of Keynes then go for it.

I do not say the following for you, but for anyone interested in reality who may read this thread:

Closing the deficit in the 1990s was economically USEFUL because the economy was much stronger (even at its worst it was much stronger) and there was room for INTEREST RATES to GO DOWN as a result.

Clinton and Obama were/are presiding over radically different economies.
