35: Take That, Take That

Modern Monetary Theory, Money Printing and Stimulus

The hosts discuss Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) as the mechanism used to create trillions of dollars for COVID-19 stimulus without immediate inflation. They note that if the government can print two trillion dollars in three weeks, there is no financial barrier to funding reparations. They mention that even pro-reparations candidate Maryanne Williamson only asked for $500 billion, which they view as a low-ball figure.
