Yeah i got Econ right now

Keynes idea is called "Keynesian Economics" - The macroeconomics generalization that lead to teh conclusion that a capitalistic economy is characterized by macroeconomic instability and that fiscal policy and monetary policy can be used to promote full employment, price-level stability and economic growth.

Keynes pretty much said that government injections (spending) will raise the economy.

Laissez-fair model and aggregate labor market graph - labor demand > labor supply = less consumer spending, more business spending, poorer market; LD < LS = consumer spending, less business spending, better market. Laissez-fair model going along the lines of "hands off" ala government, the government can't force businesses to expand to accommodate the excess labor demand.
