Our gov spends simply at the will of Congress. We use the $ it spends to settle our trade deficits, pay our banks back, pay tax & net save.

“These economic royalists complain that we seek to overthrow the institutions of America. What they really complain of is that we seek to take away their power. Our allegiance to American institutions requires the overthrow of this kind of power.”

Robert Hockett As a retired, Federal Employee and Federal Union Leader, his appointees to the NLRA and FLRA enabled the Unions to organize and become a voice at the table at the worksite and politically. Extremely difficult to please everyone all the time even the macro economically literate.

I highly recommend both David Graeber book, Debt the first 5,000 years and the works Michael Hudson on the debt, which David's are based on. They are mind shifting books.

Fantastic book, reframes my conception of how our economy works. Paradigm shift that can rejuvenate our political debates for the better. It also only shifts our problems, but its a start. We should worry about inflation & productivity rather than deficits. Stephanie Kelton 9/10

„Anything we can actually do, we can afford.“

As Keynes correctly wrote, the government can do a lot things, being limited by resources and not by money. There is lots of unemployment in the UK and hence the government could do much more.

Libertarians can’t be happy unless Grammy works as a Walmart greeter until the day she dies

Your children must beg an unelected bank CEO to go to school

You gotta beg for a loan if you suffer heat attack.

Because Freedom & Liberty 🙄

“Libertarians” do not understand that banks are created via government laws

But they think bank credit is pure.

Our Public Money that our government issues in our name so we can pay down our private debts is a ponzi

An illustration of the fact our government issues our national currency.

Which gets interpreted as being wrong

And tax payers actually own the 💵 printing machine & can never go broke. But somehow get stuck with a lousy bank credit 💳 and no 💵 to pay their bank back

I'm excited to be publishing my article 'Statutory Contracts' in Yale Journal on Regulation. It argues that certain spending statutes are actually contract offers, and should be interpreted as such. Recognizing that Congress can contract opens up new possibilities for durable economic planning.
