Very true.
Johnny Maynard would be very disappointed in how his ideas have been misapplied.
As I understand it, items from his economic theories as to how public spending impacted the economies were utilized to justfy jump-starting a stagnant economy by a sharp-short bump in government spending.
These efforts were claimed to have produced some benefit and, like magic, a whole program of constant government “stimulas” came to be accepted despite its costs and lack of efficiency. The taxes to finance and/or the inflation to print-around that spending became big factors in making econimic cycles deeper and prolonged — the exact opposit of what Keynes would have proposed.
