  1. @detektorfm In den Folgen bisher wurde über Ehrenamt und öffentlich geförderte Projekte gesprochen oder über Menschen und Ideen, die öffentliches Geld oder Geld von Stiftungen brauchen. Bisher kamen noch kaum Menschen zu Wort, die etwas Besteuerbares haben oder tun, oder die Stifter, die ein Vermögen erst einmal haben müssen, um es stiften zu können. Es stehen Menschen und Ideen im Vordergrund, die erwarten oder erhoffen, dass an sie Geld (um-) verteilt wird. #mmt

    To put this in MMT terms. Donald Trump is adding $1.8 trillion to the economy. Every time the government spends money, it adds money to the economy because it’s deficit is mirrored by an increase of the money supply in the non-federal sectors.

  4. We're very excited to announce our online lectures series - with our first to kick off on Tuesday 2nd June, 6pm AEST.

    us06web.zoom.us/meeting/regist

    This series will feature the most pertinent economic & political issues, ideas that challenge the economic status quo, and the urgent demand for more just policy.

    The first in our Lecture Series is about inflation, political will and building economic capacity - how we did it before and how we can do it again.

    Marcus Champ's research into Australia during World War 2 shows forgotten lessons that could not be more relevant for today. Time for Q&A and discussion at the end.

    We'd love to see you there!

  9. Eine sinnvolle Alternative wäre eine staatliche Job-Garantie für alle unfreiwillig arbeitslosen, wie sie die Vertreter der MMT (Modern Monetary Theory) fordern.
    Finanziert sich praktisch von selbst über die Steigerung der Binnennachfrage, die gerade am Boden liegt - es sei denn, man lässt scheunentorgroße Steuerschlupflöcher offen.

    Man muss allerdings nicht lange nachdenken, um drauf zu kommen, wer sich dagegen aussprechen würde: Arbeitgeber könnten nicht mehr mit Arbeitslosigkeit drohen, um Löhne niedrig zu halten.

  14. @kauer Before taxing billionaires, it's probably a good idea to stop shovelling money at them.

    If the government stops deliberately producing and nurturing billionaires as they have for the last half century, I'm sure their population will dwindle pretty rapidly.

    Honestly, have you _seen_ billionaires? They're obviously not our best and brightest. Left to fend for themselves, the weight of their own ineptitude will be far more efficacious at thinning their numbers than a wee haircut.

    Hmmm, so in sum, consumers are held hostage to foreign markets (and domestic markets only by association) and the financial systems which operate them, but sovereign currency issuers are not?

    Doesn’t the ‘exchange’ of goods and services using currency across State boundariews impose financial/monetary discipline on sovereign currency issuers? This has alway been my bugbear about MMT. How does MMT deal with foreign trade?

    Strictly speaking, what the federal government collects cannot be classified as tax. Tell me how money that is simply incinerated by accounting fact meet any of these criteria.

    tax (tăks)
    n.
    1. A contribution for the support of a government required of persons, groups, or businesses within the domain of that government.
    2. A fee or dues levied on the members of an organization to meet its expenses.
    3. A burdensome or excessive demand; a strain.
