Keynesian Economics
I believe Keynes was right in that production begins
and ends with money. For instance, if you look at how entrepreneurs invest
their money, you will quickly realize that all their investments are
profit-centered; even when donating to charities and causes, they will do it
for brand recognition which eventually equals money (Arestis et al., 2018). But
these investments, although individual-centered, create employment
opportunities and increase production and income in the companies that the
entrepreneurs have invested at. Thus, the main tenet of the theory reflects
this assertion by stating that the economy of a country is led by demand for
its products and services by local and international investors.
