Big surprise
Keynes was part of a culture of scholars in that day who cast off all sound wisdom and applauded whatever thought came out of their fannies. Eugenics, social engineering, socialism, disarmament, one-world government, free love, androgyny, etc. Keynes’ contribution was to come up with an economic model that was the very reverse of correct. Yay.
History is in the process of violently disgorging these soulless fools and their thoughts.
How wrong I was. The nexus fof the matter is Keynes' oft-quoted maxim, "In the long run? In the long run, we're all dead." Related to his sterile sex, he had no future generation, did not want any future generation, and had no concern about a future generation.
Thus his economics was all about manipulating the present for whatever you could get, and kicking the can of responsibility, costs and debts down the road, ideally to (somebody else's) children and grandchildren.
Being an explicit, deliberate and systematic executioner of traditional morality, he also had no qualms about economc "solutions" which in effect picked everybody else's pocket, e.g. by deliberately inflating the currency, thereby reducing every person's purchasing power and security, and that of the unfortunate hard-working, thrifty "savers" most of all.
Normal decent people would reject doing such a thing when they grasped the results. But not Keynes: a proud mocker of normal, decent people.
I read a good article on Keynes and his main motivation in life was making money.
His book, “The General Theory”, was crap and he knew it. It was just a way to influence policy.
He managed several insurance funds and his own account and did quite well.

It comes as absolutely no surprise to find out that Keynes himself was a muddled man, an intellectual poseur, and a moral force answerable only to himself.
Darwin's theory of evolution gave license to generations of intellectuals to reject G-d as an invention of man. The rise of science as a power to shape the material world was ushered in by Darwin, Freud, and -- perhaps -- Einstein, although I don't include Einstein in the same league as the other two. Einstein was a legitamate genius of the same order as Newton or DaVinci; the others; Darwin was as far as I know an honest scientist, a keen and honest observer of nature, and a visionary in his field. Freud was a poseur who believed himself to be a genius and set out, as a young man, with the explicit purpose and mission to discover something revolutionary. He thought he'd found his great discovery in cocaine, and he rode that hobby horse until the down-side of the drug became obvious. He then switched horses and came up with his theory of the mind and personality. He was, in my view, all hat and no cattle.
These three individuals, and countless other lesser lights, gave intellectuals permission to drop from their equations any higher power. Again, Einstein, I believe, had no desire for this outcome, and he was a strong believer himself. But his theoretical work has been misused by persons much smaller than himself as justification for a rejection of the Almighty from science and from intellectual discourse in general. They opened the door to explicitly athiest intellectuals like Keynes and others.
We live today with the results.
Yep-a philosopher—would have to research which one—but he remarked how Keynes used to have homosexual orgies and they would bring in young boys and pass them around for the group to use.
These Satanists are extremely evil. They are out to destroy Christian morality—the Christian paradigm which (besides judaism) condemned homosexuality and pederasty which was prevalent in all cultures. Homosexual “marriage” is all about making men/boy sex the ideal as it was in Greece.
I am not kidding when I post this....I am not exaggerating. Another documentation of this—the homosexuals who founded a “boy scout” group in the Weimar Republic and the Brownshirts....Nazis founded in a gay bar—they used the Hitler Youth (mandatory) for their sexual orgies.
Pink Swastika (online) and the Hidden Hitler documents the homosexual movements—designed to make sex with boys legal (UN and Germany are trying to legalize it right now as is the APA trying to remove pedophilia off their mental illness list as they were forced to take homosexuality off in the 70s ) which swept throughout the Western world (still exists in the eastern world—never eradicated like it was with Christian ethics.)
It is what the Bohemian Grove (Kissinger, Cronkite, Prescott Bush) what they do in their secret meetings, etc.
BTW, Buckley,jr writes about Keynes in his 1951 book—God and Man at Yale—and wonders why this push of Keynes and Atheism at his alma mater (Christian)-—he documents it using textbooks even pushed in Religion classes.....designed by socialists back then, even) and wonders why they push collectivism.
To all:
Every single post here is a true contribution to FR.
Well written, all of you!!
