@wbmosler It's sustainable, yes....until it isn't. MMT thrives on infinite growth.

@FindingMoneyDoc @BostonGlobe @brattle Yes. As a scientist one immediately sees that Kelton’s mirror graph is a symptom of a self -defined identity. Meaningless. A =~(~A). Eureka!

@StephanieKelton One slight problem with the analogy, the US government does not print most of the money "tokens" in the economy - banks do. That could be changed with proper legislation.

@DanielDenvir This is the worst interview Dan has ever done - never challenged his guests' flat and binary view of the world. They were preaching to a choir rather than "teaching-in". They lumped all Americans, Israelis and "the West" into one monolith as they did for deeply divided Palestine

@AllredRd @TXOdysseus @TRHLofficial Seems like the solution is to stop gov spending and taxation at the time. Same result. Less hassle

@arnebanani Actually pasture raised cows create more greenhouse gas than factory raised. There is also a strong connection between a virus in cows leading to type 1 diabetes. Don’t cut down milk consumption- just stop.

@LynAldenContact @swedishsamu The only thing missing is causality. Inflation is too complex to pass off as being "caused by" gov debt. Since only banks and shadow banks can create "delta M"= M2- M0, need to dig deeper for a meaningful explanation.

@StephanieKelton No one disputes that the Treas and Fed coordinate - not a revelation. Since taxation is matched with gov spending, it's hardly a damper on the economy.

@StephanieKelton Long and short rates can be disconnected. Maybe not "crowd out" but certainly compete. Finally admitting that the gov only creates reserves - a payment vehicle not the bulk of the money supply.

@StephanieKelton See Frederick Soddy for a deeper and more fundamental understanding of money.

@rch371 @CharliePatrick @jasonfurman @tribelaw I think it naive to assume conservative SC justices are not “economically crazy”.

@JaneLane99 @Tofuwa_Bohu @isawida He just sighed. Is that bullying? Sounds like a little bit of projection.

@Daydrea13445895 @Tofuwa_Bohu People reduce eating meat because they believe it to be harmful. Why is it then OK to be harmful on Sunday? Should a rapist be proud that he is cutting down on his raping?
