The trouble is, Nonnie and Anya a government is not an individual or a family or a business. This country was pretty Keynsian at one time as his theories helped in the 1930s but we seem to have gone a long way from these and back to bean counting rather than economics.
Keynes stated that if Investment exceeds Saving, there will be inflation. If Saving exceeds Investment there will be recession. One implication of this is that, in the midst of an economic depression, the correct course of action should be to encourage spending and discourage saving. This runs contrary to the prevailing wisdom, which says that thrift is required in hard times. In Keynes’s words, “For the engine which drives Enterprise is not Thrift, but Profit.”

Before gaskets are blown this also means that, when we times are good we should be saving.
