Well. Where I live not everyone is busy.
Our population of working age (18-65) is about 3 mio. people with about 1 mio. on some kind of welfare (unemployment benifits, government paid sick leave, disability pension etc.).
So here in Denmark mr. Keynes has turned out to be right.
What he failed to see was the rise of the welfare state and just how unevenly distributed work or "busyness" would end up being.
