A great borough, located between London an Birmingham and comprising of the towns Bletchley, Wolverton, Stony Stratford and Newport Pagnell. Ignorant outsiders often mock MK, mistaking it as just the shopping centre and crying because a simple grid system is too hard for their special little brains.
Most people are jealous of Milton Keynes, resorting to abusing a place where people live, You'd think they had better things to do? A main focus when "slaggin off" MK is that we lack history, seeing as we are a NEW town I believe the enigma at bletchley park, the birth of the phrase "cock and bull story" and the ROMAN, yes roman, villa's at Bancroft are a start for history.
MK can also boast many lakes, woodland areas, parks and an extensive redway system. Pubs and Clubs are also in abundance, with many on canal side or overlooking pleasant views. There are things to do for everyone, for example, an indoor ski slope, two multiplex cinemas (one being the first in Europe) a theatre, many leisure centres, the national hockey stadium, the national badminton centre, stadium:MK, the bowl, an indoor ice rink, (with a hockey team that has won the English Premier Ice Hockey League 5 seasons running) a theme park for children, a wakeboarding centre as well as a vast selection of restaurants set in amazing scenery and much more.
Basically, the people who live here love it and are happy to live here. You people who want to slag it off don't live here, you don't have to come here (oh but you do for our great shopping) so just get a life. :D

Example:
ignorant outsider: "My brain cannot cope with the simple fact that up and left is the same as left and up!"
Person from MK: It's just a grid system
ignorant outsider: "Well, Milton Keynes has... no... soul... yes, soul.
Person from MK: Jealous much?

influenced by the economic theory of John M. Keynes (1883-1946); in particular, Keynes' book *The General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money* (1936). The main point of Keynes' general theory (GT) was that market economies are not usually self-correcting, and occasionally require some sovereign intervention to prevent inflation or depression.
One of the policy prescriptions of the GT for curing recessions was to lower interest rates; another, more potent tool, was to deliberately run a fiscal deficit as a strategy for increasing aggregate demand. The GT was too late to have much of an impact on the Great Depression, but it did have a major impact on the economic policies of the Western Democracies from 1946 to the present.
During the period 1979 to 2001, Keynesianism was supposedly discredited, but national governments continued to use stimulus packages and monetary policy to resolve recessions. The policy has evolved, but remains the cornerstone of actually existing government behavior.
Attacks on Keynesianism: the most famous adversary of the GT was Friedrich von Hayek (1899-1992) of the London School of Economics, who insisted that an authentically free market would be self-correcting if it were only allowed to. Hayek's objections were ideological, but other economists such as John Muth argued that the GT expected people to make irrational, or unreasonable errors.
During the late 1970's, Keynesianism was eclipsed by the Rational Expectations Hypothesis; but REH failed to develop satisfactory policy proposals, while Neo-Keynesian economics evolved to address many of the original REH criticisms.

The treasury secretary wanted to respond to the inflationary spiral with a Keynesian strategy of tax increases, spending cuts, and interest rate hikes.
