Steve Keen
Steve Keen (born 28 March 1953) is an Australian-born, British-based economist and author. He considers himself a post-Keynesian, criticising neoclassical economics as inconsistent, unscientific and empirically unsupported. The major influences on Keen's thinking about economics include John Maynard Keynes, Karl Marx, Hyman Minsky, Piero Sraffa, Augusto Graziani, Joseph Alois Schumpeter, Thorstein Veblen, and François Quesnay.

  1. Only because the governments have monopolised the creation of currency NOT money.
    Rather obviously I create money by way of my labour.

    • So you're a counterfeiter then?

    • ​@ProfSteveKeen you certainly have your work cut out for you Mr Keen. Explaining economics in the presence of the Dunning Krueger effect must be exhausting

    • @Luke Gardner You got that right!

    • @ProfSteveKeen My work is a commodity, as a result of what it represents cannot exist without my labour. Unlike currency that is magicked up out of thin air by banks and governments that have completely monopolised all payments with their currencies that we are forced to use as money. Surely in a free market, which we do not have, I get to choose how much I am paid and with what form of money except that the bullies that are government insist in their currencies.
