Critics of Keynesian Economics
Henry Hazlitt confronted the rise of Keynesianism in his day and put together an intellectual arsenal: the most brilliant economists of the time showing what is wrong with the system, in great detail with great rigor. With excerpts from books and articles published between the 30s and 50s, The Critics of Keynesian Economics remains the most powerful anti-Keynesian collection ever assembled.

And now even Vladimir Putin!!!

Vladimir Putin Is Wiser Than The Keynesians In D.C.
Who is paying attention to world affairs and trying to understand?
Not the pawns of the unConstitutional coup in the U.S.!
Nothing but propagandized news is fed by the unConstitutional coup to the media outlets and the consequence is that Congress and all of the ego-driven interventionists advising them are dumbed down and oblivious of world affairs. They are dumbed down in all except the fascist, nationalistic, militaristic, socialist, Keynesian blah-blah.
Talk about being isolationists!
Vladimir Putin is ready to embarrass Americans for being so pathetically naive and gullible. He calls America a socialist nation; but not as a compliment!

The Joseph Stagg Lawrence entry is brilliant. I wish he had had more to contribute to the overall literature. Of course, he was too busy being a productive contributor to society...

Robert, don't be fooled by Putin's rhetoric. He can be against Keynes but he is not a pro-liberal politic, nor he is an Austrian School supporter. Just take into account that the Russian Federation has one of the poorest "Economic Freedom Indexes" in the Europe.

You guys are essentially idealists and purists of child like simplicity. You have a belief in a Utopian Garden of Economic Eden. It is as impossible in reality as communism was. In fact, you do not have a single solid example of your Utopian economy to point to. That should say something about how ridiculous it is.
