During the last two decades, Modern Monetary Theory (henceforth MMT) has won wide academic recognition and public influence. Its most prominent achievements include shifting the public debate on the conduct of economic policy and reviving interest in the theory of money.

MMT policy conclusions result from its underlying understanding of money, as some of the more illuminating MMT...

Having finished off the publishing tasks on "Modern Monetary Theory and the Recovery," I am now turning to some MMT critiques that popped up too late for inclusion in the book. The first is by George S. Tavlas, the Alternate to the Governor of the Bank of Greece on the European Central Bank’s Governing Council, which is titled "Modern Monetary Theory Meets Greece and Chicago." It contains a broad overview critique of MMT, which overlaps discussions found within my book. Of more interest was...

An in depth look at the China / America situation by the moderate, Chas Freeman.

Biden's approach so far is not much different...

 This video is pretty damning. Shevron, it seems, is run by gangsters. Chevron's lawyers managed to get the lawyer who was suing them put in prison for 18 months on fake charges that were dismissed by 18 other judges in Canada and Ecuador. Chevron pay their witness a good wage, pay all his taxes, and have given him a nice car and place to live. The disaster has been dubbed the Amazon Chernobyl. Between 1964 and 1992, the oil company Texaco, later acquired by Chevron in 2001, was allegedly...

For over an hour, Bay takes on a series of propaganda ranging from Adrian Zenz to inconsistent witness testimony to...

A lucid perception of reality reveals that our entire experience of what we call the world is inseparable from the awareness in which it appears, and that this awareness is boundless, timeless, and head-over-heels in love with all that is. There is no possible experience of the universe which is not painted upon the canvass of infinite loving awareness, with paint that is made of that same awareness, by a painter who is that same awareness....This is a clear statement of perennial wisdom,...
