persistent 'anomalies' as anomalies, ignoring raw data while retreating into the comforts of intellectual hypothesis, whether this be neoclassical, Keynesian, Marxian, behavioural or other. Even in areas such as post-Keynesian or behavioural economics, were data collection has become something of a fetish

which I accept but prefer to rephrase. I have traced Keynes’ argument and language on these points because | think it is now generally accepted by Keynesian and anti-Keynesian and neo-Keynesian schools alike. That’s why I think my own interpretation differs from a general Chapter 4 Mill’s Idea 1/11/16 5

ans. (I call myself a free market Democrat, whether or not that’s a contradiction in terms.) Freshwater views tend to oppose intervention, but accept Keynesian basic definitions and equations such as the Y =] +C doctrine and the distinction between “attempted saving” and investment. It is these I question.
