Sadly clueless. Govt create ££, not taxpayers. Taxing the rich makes no difference to govt ability to carry out socially beneficial policies, not taxing them provides an excuse not to. They said Blair was Thatcher’s greatest achievement, but I think she’d be proud of Gary.
If the government keeps losing its wealth the welfare state is over. On @LBC just now.
"The only way the private sector could continue to run deficits against the government would be to surrender assets (not government IOUs) in payment. You’d have to turn over your car, house, bank account, and children to the government to pay taxes!!" realprogressives.org/mmp-blog-4-res…
"The lie is there to create an institution that gives the wealthy risk free money under the ruse of a funding operation"
A country that issues its own currency does NOT have to sell bonds or gilts to finance public purpose spending. The lie is there to create an institution that gives the wealthy risk free money under the ruse of a funding operation. Kill em all.
1. Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) - What It Is And What It Isn’t MMT is a description of how the monetary system works - specifically how it works for countries that issue their own currency – for example, the UK and the US (and Japan, Australia, Canada and more).
Do those who are loudly calling for the Fed to get completely out of the rate-setting business so that "market forces" can establish the fed funds rate know what they'd end up with? I somehow doubt it. moslereconomics.com/wp-content/upl…
"If we divide the economy into three sectors (domestic private sector, domestic government sector, and foreign sector), then if one sector runs a deficit at least one other must run a surplus." #LearnMMT #Sectoral Balances #EachOneTeachOne realprogressives.org/mmp-blog-4-mmt…

Governments with a fiat currency spend money into existence and tax money out of existence. Always. Everytime. Believing a currency issuing nation is broke on "debt" payable in its own currency is a sign of economic illiteracy.
They always threaten, yet never leave. Bye Felicia. We don't need their money. The reason to tax billionaires and corporations, is to reduce inequality, and limit their ability to manipulate society. NOT to raise funds. #learnMMT @CheeseMacro @RealProgressUS @RP_In_Action
Contemporary education is a mechanism for reproducing social inequities, a business endeavor purposefully designed to foster obedience and conformity to injustice. Critical pedagogy offers a liberatory praxis. Yours truly, @utahvanguard utahvanguard.medium.com/critical-pedag…

In the year 2025, there are still people who don't understand monetary operations. No one said anything about "borrowing." That's you stuck in your ways. x.com/StephanieKelto…
In the year 2025, after the American Overheating Plan and the One Big Buster Buster, there are apparently still people who think the budget process is biasing us toward too little borrowing. Sometimes you just have to laugh.
