Progressives believe that government plays a bigger role

There is been some confusion, Keynesianism may or may not imply more functions to government. But when Progressives apply Keynesian stimulus, they mean to stimulate all valuable production, including government, which they want to have a bigger role. To the extent that government is stickier than Progressives assume, then a lot of that stimulus is hard to remove from government.

Just take a look at the UC  Berkeley Public Policy program and all the out of work progressive, politicians they hire. Their science advocates their own funding, they want special federal funds go for into their program and support their continued contracts.  They have little time to conduct their science at UC, their cuts are weeks away.
