I posted this on Yahoo in response to this link, in which George Soros argues that anything but ENORMOUS budget deficits is bad for our economy.
Do you see the beauty of Keynesian socialist logic? If your economy is good, then public spending will make it better. If it’s bad, then public spending is ESSENTIAL. If you’re going broke, trying to stop the process will only make you broke faster.
No matter what happens, the answer is larger government control of the economy. Anyone who is pushing Keynes nowadays is either stupid–most of them–or a Communist in all but name. The aims of Keynes were the same as George Bernard Shaw: Fascist tyranny.

I wrote about the link between the New Deal and Fascism (it did actually exist, I will note, and had identifiable characteristics) here: http://moderatesunited.blogspot.com/2011/03/new-dealfascism.html
The man most identified with the New Deal in the early days, other than FDR himself, literally liked Mussollini, passed out books praising Fascism, and was only fired for being a drunk that was a political liability. He was Times Man of the Year for 1933.
