'He sees Keynesians as “manipulative.”

So let us define “Keynesian” to be descriptive of a “school of thought” that originated at the time of the devaluations of the pound and the dollar in the early 30’s of the 20th century. Then, more specifically, a “Keynesian” would favor the existence of a “manipulative” state establishment of central bank and treasury which would continuously seek to achieve “economic welfare” objectives with comparatively little regard for the long term reputation of the national currency and the associated effects of that on the reputation of financial enterprises domestic to the state.'

The first one was quote mining. I looked at a few of the original quotes, and they were taken out of context. The second one is an antonymous group of people in a panic web site who has a definite bias. Well, both have the austrian economics bias, but the first one at least is more respectable , even if they took the quotes out of context.
