Make it a group of west coast Americans, brits, and the most unhinged Russians coming together, all white, duh, and it should be.
- they and what munitions?
- they haven't preemptively bombed them to the stone age, or manage to starve them
- it's not Saddam's joke army
As such, not only is MMT agnostic of its own basis on the bedrocks of American financial imperialism but it further advocates for the preservation of the current status quo of dollar hegemony through its proposal to trickle down some dividends of that system to the (exclusively American) working class.
That's the american arm, and it says more about then MMT, whether to appear palatable or as a serious belief. I do not recognize those views on the much more western critical co-creator Bill Mitchell, who emphasizes it is a lens that cannot replace sociology, psychology, ecology, and all the rest of it as neoliberalism pretends, with degrowth and decolonization as frequent topics on his blog.
Before you replace money, if ever, whatever replaces this system is going to need to keep operating the machines of modern society, but even more essential, if it wants society to be viable, it needs to know how to "pay" for not burning the planet.
At a time where it would lead to the fallout it led to, up to and including the severe decay in German production, besides the European political chaos, eternal contraction, and ir relevancy. No brownie points, as history will recognize it.
The real conspiracy is that they actually believe all of it, as the smart people died and the new generation is as brainwashed as it needed to be.
American investment comes with freedom... for american capital.
And european succdems get to cry a little more while they wank licking america's boots.
What invasion, these are soy boys on a propaganda tour, and even then, probably more for their countries than for election interference, now claiming that not being allowed in to explicitly support a candidate on election weekend is anti-democratic. Shut the fuck up, you lie so often you don't even know what words mean anymore.
“Since taxes are paid in pesos, if you have savings in pesos today and you dollarize them, later you will have to sell them again to pay taxes. It is very simple. You don’t need to be an economist to understand it, let alone have a PhD.
You also don't need it to understand that the only rational thing to do is store your savings in another currency that isn't collapsing and converting it back to to the one no-one wants just before obligantions payment, Jack, fees be damned. That's only nominally a currency, as even bottlecaps or tide pods are a better storage of value.
What part of "there is no money" don't they understand? But, seriously, how is that going to work with whatever the new "stability" and "growth" suicide pack is called, that already demands austerity so that we throw more money at weapons that don't exist, mitigation of killing the planet, killing migrants in the Mediterranean, and all the rest of it? Have everyone have american, or more, unpayable private debt for life, since they'll never admit how money works?
The 5 years olds will keep getting whinier as their treats stop coming, and they aren't even smart enough to realize they need to treat the cops like military to deal with it.
Ah, well
I keep hearing about how "it's the most important election ever". Nah, mate. Fortress Europe, hostilizing the world, deindustriazling, tightening the euro poverty pact, accepting climate change, supporting the death of ukranians, supporting a genocide, conceding on worker, women, and lgbtq rights, increasing censorship and spying of their own citizens, forbidding protests and strikes, all of this and more has the the blood used to sign it long dry up.
At most, it's a matter of legitimizing all of it, but they'll spin it regardless, so, no, they're the most useless I've ever seen.
When I'm not in the nihilist mood, I fully trust the zionist entity to keep searching for collapse of itself.
