Why do consumers mostly gain little buying power during a
deflation?
John Maynard Keynes claimed that the
equilibrium level of employment, for the
economy as a whole, depended on the
effective demand for output. Explain what
Keynes meant by the effective demand for
output. Is this equilibrium level of
employment always consistent with full
employment? What would happen if wages
fell due to unemployment? Elaborate.
