RT @StephanieKelton: I’ve seen no evidence that anyone in the administration understands this.

If you make stuff people don't need & persuade them to go into debt to buy it, you contribute towards the productivity they are discussing at that round table. There are deeper round table conversations we ought to be having about the purposes of economic activity in the 2020s.

Not so much a round table. More of an exercise in group think.

Thank you, Stephanie!.

I'm not a leading MMT economist, although I am MMT and PhD. I try to extend the MMT frame of Mosler/Wray/Kelton/Mitchell to as many as possible. The greatest barrier sometimes is when people I speak to feel MMT advocates have been rude to them. Please be polite whenever you can.

We have now had enough applications from brilliant students to fill all the Global South scholarship spots we can possibly afford this time around, but we are certainly still open to non-scholarship applications, and the scholarships will be back in 2026.

Still time to sign up for the September intake of our online Masters degree in modern monetary theory and ecological economics:.

Not to mention our accessible global online Masters degree, with lectures by Scott Fullwiler, John T. Harvey, Dirk Ehnts, etc.

Thanks, Simon! #MMT. Adelaide 1-day - 24 Aug: Bristol Conference - 12/13 Sep: Amsterdam 1-day - 14 Sep: Sheffield Weekend 21/21 Sep: Vienna Weekend 28/29 Sep:

Yes, we do have some ideas, and I would be happy to have a chat with Jim. :).

Before the Australian Government has a Productivity Roundtable, they ought to formally change the definition of productivity in line with the measuring what matters framework. The aim ought not to be maximise GDP at all costs, but to maximise well-being of people and environment.

I wish everyone could come and study with economists like Scott on our global online Masters program. If I could fund places for everyone who would benefit, I would, but I can't do more for most than keep the costs as low as the university will tolerate:

a failure to distinguish between monetary systems, based on the extent to which governments possess genuine monetary sovereignty. Currency issuance is not enough. On this issue, I recommend people consult MMT economists like Scott Fullwiler, Ndongo Sylla and Fadhel Kaboub. e.g. .

You see, this is where you are showing ignorance. Well informed PKers like John Harvey will tell you MMT is just PK monetary theory done correctly. Private finance cannot and does not work independently of public finance. But I do have a criticism of social media MMTists which is.
