These are tax justice, the Green New Deal, new economic thinking including modern monetary theory, and accounting and audit reform, although there are many overlaps between the two. His current focus is on answering the question every journalist asks of every politician, which is ‘How are you going to pay for it?' Being able to answer that question is key to delivering the reforms our society needs. Website: https://www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/ |
nb4 anyone!
now I want another round with the same suspects, but after a beer or three. or a drinking game or two.
You're on. First round is on you.
@ProfSteveKeen well played!
😡angry algo bois 😤🤬
LOL. Lets see if it effects things
Very engaging discussion today. Steve is unique in that he's got the technical chops but also knows the history of economic thought.
Great show thank you!!
Not sure I like Murphys presentation style..too smug
He’s a landowner don’t you know.
Murphys idea of sustainable cost accounting would literally bankrupt overnight 99.999% of businesses, including his own (which is a blogging site)..in other words it is lunacy
Steve Says "Anne Pettifor has been more successful than Richard Murphy in effecting change"🤣🤣he's right of of course but that comment will make Murphys blood boil😡 but the truth is he's achieved next to nothing
Ha, a mate of mine who is an Aussie geologist/geographer says his field of study progresses one death at a time. Academia is more often than not about defending reputations rather than upending the status quo.
The lucky, lucky bastard! We could do with effective funerals in economics,. Instead, the zombie ideas live on, in another idiot savant when the idiot savants he was trained by retire or die.
@ProfSteveKeen Maybe more drinking parties are in order? (hell, it's not the worst way to go by some people's estimate)
I dont buy the idea from Murphy
One of the best discussions of MMT I have ever heard. Thank you.
Fascinating
I find its annoying when talking about tax and MMT. You Academics have done the maths worked it out. That’s why Steve is fringe and MMT is fringe, because most governments are bought by the rich and powerful. Applying your policies which are all social which I am in favor off don’t get off the ground because of greedy pricks in power. In other words keep going and realize that you are fringe because the powerful are scared shitless of you.
