Socialism started it by creating poverty among large swaths of the population in Europe. Germany was just the unluckiest participant.


Socialism didnt really start taking over and shaping countries until the February and October revolutions in Russia in 1917. By that time, WWI was already in its closing months.

Keynes wasn't a socialist

He's also the single most important economist to every economy today, so yeah.

They might not all agree with Keynes, but they would agree that his ideas are more or less the basis of every countries fiscal policy today.

Even then, most economists would agree with Keynes. Austrians are a fringe group artificially propped up as useful tools by billionaires.
