I haven't read the original book, but from what I can tell from this article, at least part of the general theory is about explaining why there is less than full employment and income inequality. As far as I can tell, you are calling the entire theory crap based the author's desire to create full employment and income equality. I'm not sure Keynes wanted governments to try for this or not, but at there seems to be at least two separate parts of the theory to evaluate.
