The Basics of Modern Money
A nation’s currency is a wonderful, powerful thing. Learn how countries like the U.S.—which issue their own sovereign currency—can afford to use that currency to serve their citizens. Get inspired about our untapped potential, and learn to be less worried about the so-called “national debt”! — June 1, 2017 (6:29)
What is MODERN MONETARY THEORY? What does MODERN MONETARY THEORY mean? — Feb 15, 2017 (5:51)
MMT: Inflation Is The Constraint To Government Deficits The limit is inflation. If the government tries to purchase more than what the economy can produce at the given price, then it will be competing with private buyers, and this will lead to producers bidding up prices for scarce products. In such a scenario, the government would need to raise taxes in order to reduce private demand for goods and services, to “make room” for its own spending. /snip
