#GreenNewDeal advocates take heed! A #JobGuarantee creates a perfectly elastic demand for labor. To fulfill the promise, the funding must also be perfectly elastic. No discretionary, predetermined budget and no dedicated “revenue” source. Or. It. Will. Fail. twitter.com/raulacarrillo/…

This is a convenient lie that people tell themselves and others. Racism persists as one of the Triple Evils that my father spoke about. It fuels housing discrimination, constructs the school to prison pipeline and is the cement that would be used to build the wall. #MLK #MLK90 twitter.com/globeopinion/s…

Definitely check out the work of @StephanieKelton and other advocates of modern monetary theory (MMT) -- they're offering a framework to better understand the debt without fear and to avoid ending up in austerity-land. cnn.com/2019/01/13/pol…

Pretty amazing passage from Abba Lerner (1951), in light of the recent smattering of attacks on MMT—all of which admit that the *economics* are sound. pic.twitter.com/LAIIW8jeYM

Just over a year ago, @econjared posed some questions for MMTers. Randy Wray and I replied. Notice how we responded even then that relying on Congress to raise/cut taxes was not the right way to deal with inflation.

Yes, and the budgeting process now includes analysis from third-parties like CBO and JCT (among others).

Or, as @stf18 puts it, MMT replaces the conventional budget constraint with an inflation constraint.
