Old comments[edit]

How NPOV is the word "progressive"? Do those who disagree with Galbraith consider themselves to be against progress? Michael Hardy 22:40, 1 Oct 2003 (UTC)

The opposite of the literal sense of progressive would be reactionary, which probably would be a good way of describing people on the other side of the fence. However, progressive has a more general meaning associated with leftwing. But I realize none of these terms are ideal... Liberal means different things in the US and Europe, left is pretty vague, radical isn't quite right in this context... -- Viajero 10:01, 3 Oct 2003 (UTC)

From my experience with him, I would say that he would consider himself to be a member of "the progressive movement", or at least in ideological accord with much of it. Kd5mdk 16:20, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Keynesian, not Post-Keynesian?[edit]

Isn't Galbraith more of a post-Keynesian than a Keynesian? He wrote the forward to Warren Mosler's book, after all. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.195.135.188 (talk) 05:18, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes you're right. It was me who originally labelled him a plain Keynesian in the info box. Cant beleive I did that, as many consider there are major differences between the two schools. Thanks for pointing this out! FeydHuxtable (talk) 13:01, 8 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I’ve Never Known War- by Pete Townshend/ The Who[edit]

Are you the author he refers to in this poignant and beautiful masterpiece? It has always been salient with me, now more than ever. 2603:7080:B242:3800:DCF5:3954:58B1:CDE6 (talk) 02:38, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
