Brad DeLong — John Maynard Keynes Getting One Very Right: There Is No Medium-Run Full-Employment Sheet-Anchor for the Economy


Keynes quote from General Theory.
This, expressed in a very general way, is my theory of the rate of interest.

It's an interesting description by Keynes, but I see nothing in there about money being produced. It feels very much like there is q fixed amount of money in that description.

ISTM that there is a further interaction via the bank lending cycle and it is the desire to hold uninsured bank liabilities and equity that determines the interest rate on lending.
