I think that legitimate gripes about the economy combined with an anti-intellectual distrust of the academic establishment has led to all this anti-Fed sentiment.The manner in which the ideas of Keynes (or even Friedman) have been implemented by our government is imperfect at best, so I don't think it's fair to blame the current situation on them. Blame the political machine that makes economic decisions.</blockquote>
