MMT != KE fwiw
Just rebrand old theories and pump it to the masses. Old Sleepy Joe has been doing other peoples bits his whole life.
What I hear is Keynesian ideology. Granted I didnât listen to everything but I did watch the first video. Keynesian Economics support credit and leverage and the Austrian Economics support equity or productivity back 1:1 ratio or debt backed by real savings. What I donât heart from MMT is defaults happen and will happen. For example, Argentina has defaulted three times in the past 30years and this is a G20 country. 10 years ago, the US fell from a AAA rating to a AA, and technically Canada has better credit rating than us. But that doesnât matter because the US Credit Default Swap is trading much lower the Canadaâs due to the US being the worldâs lender. All I see is the US doing (same as every other G20 country) is open up a credit card, run up the balance, and then open up a new card credit with a higher interest rate plus lower rating to pay back previous loan.
The USA will always be able to âfundâ its debt. The cost of funding will rise and will crowd out ALL other markets. So corporate failures due to extreme HY market yields, and an accelerating govt debt will cause chaos. But hey, US treasuries will get âfundedâ
âAlwaysâ is awfully log timeâŚ
Just like house prices âalwaysâ go up in 2008
And people âalwaysâ prioritize paying their mortgage over car paymentsâŚ
Oh good more govt. I canât see a singe thing that could go wrong here.
Every single fiat currency has failed. This will be no different. Just when this one fails, itâs possible no one gets out alive⌠Globalization is the new variable.
You leave no room for optimism
You have seen our âLeadersâ correct? Vote of confidenceâŚ
Exactly. What I was describing above is how the Keynesians (or dare I say MMT) think. Weâve been in this constant circle for decades now. I think the verdict is in.
From what I recall, werenât you also against proof-of-work based currencies like bitcoin which is decentralized, publicly auditable, and also seems to be growing every day.
Maybe someday weâll have a reasonable amount of population adopt it for it to be a worthy store of value?
Iâm absolutely for free currencies not issued by the federal reserve. There should be many competing options in a true free market. At the very least the government should print money, not borrow it at interest from the FED. The last 2 presidents that opined about that had their heads blown off.
I just think either the govt is behind crypto, DARPA has papers on it from decades ago. They would never allow their financial monopoly competition.
Good news! An extra $1B from the govt for EV nonsense. Wait a second didnât the Inflation Reduction Act (LOL) spend a gajillion already on EV nonsense? I guess a few politburo members didnât get enough graft in that bill and they had to throw another $1B at them. Since I was told spending $300 on green energy reduces inflation, this extra $1B will reduce it even more. So all is well citizens!!
this is truly impressive
MMT is born out of Keynesian economics, many say its a subset but its directly rooted in the philosophy. This video spins the theory like many who rebrand old thoughtsâŚthere should be quotes around this video so they dont plagiarize.
My thought was the the 3 letter agency that has been utilizing back door channels to fund black opps missions, destabilize foreign governments and assist in placing foreign leaders in the name of democracy.
I couldnât agree more. As soon as I saw the first video, all I heard was Keynesian and didnât hear a single thing different. Just new name, I guess?
