Eps 443 - Stephanie Kelton's Modern Monetary Theory
Description
What is Modern Monetary Theory? In short, it's another way for government to get resources, votes and influence without having to tax or produce. Wow! That sounds like stealing! Stephanie Kelton has been able to garner fame doing what John Meynard Keynes did...come up with a theory that sounds like economics that garners favor with the powerful and the connected. The bad new is, like Keynes, she is doing it at the expense of every individual that has to produce in order to get resources from the economy, and that's a form of stealing.
