Keynesianism is an Economically centrist ideology ball, whose general economic theory was pretty popular back in the day and still is in most of the western countries and Japan. He believes that people saving money is bad for the economy, so keeping interest low and government spending high should keep it going through thick and thin, and had some pedantic changes to make to classical economic theory. He was Neoliberalism's best friend, and helped him get through some tough times, but people change, and Neoliberalism has since moved on. This leaves Keynesianism on his own with his retro economic policy and no other defining characteristics.

Personality
Keynesianism is the sort of guy who you know you can ask for help on homework, but you can't really remember ever having a proper conversation. He can become a little obsessive when it comes to refining mathematical models to prove his point, and this can make him seem disconnected.
Stylistic Notes
Keynesianism has multiple jokes about him which are displayed in his behaviours:
- He likes to break other people's windows
- Likes to bury money in ditches to dig it up again
- Big Consoomer
