Modern monetary theory is challenging current economic textbooks. "This shouldn’t be controversial. The film Finding The Money looks at why politicians hide behind economic “myths” rather than explain to voters the trade-offs required to help them." theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

An admission of the deplorable state of economics. Jeremy Rudd of the US Federal Reserve in his latest book. Economists’ role today is to justify “what elite interests want to do anyway: deregulate, pay fewer taxes, keep wages as low as possible”. bit.ly/3UBYHK1
"Governments need to do more to stop violence against women," says Anthony Albanese seconds before shock discovery that he is in charge of the government
There are no 'economic laws'. Every honest thinker knows this. There are only decisions made by humans. Even supply and demand - if a price drops, it's a decision to constrict supply, not a natural law. What informs decisions? Creditors' greed. That's all. rwer.wordpress.com/2024/04/26/the…

If the media covered climate change the way it covers Trump, and Trump the way it covers climate change, we'd have neither.
Why I'm an ANTI Economist.
Wealthy nations exploit their position as the world’s bankers to siphon off hundreds of billions from the needy. A paper out last week calculates that the bottom four-fifths of humanity finance the richest fifth to the tune of $660bn a year. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

"Violated, dishonored, wading in blood, dripping filth – there stands bourgeois society. This is it, in reality. Not all spic and span and moral, with pretense to culture, philosophy, ethics, order, peace, and the rule of law – but the ravening beast..." -Rosa Luxemburg
Two signs of an incompetent and corrupt government. 1. Charities exist to feed, house, care for people’s health and social welfare 2. Essential services (natural monopolies) like health, transport, energy, sanitation, are in private hands.

My recent blog is cited in The Guardian.... The economist Fadhel Kaboub suggests a way out: the World Bank and IMF could lend money to historical polluters to help them pay for their climate debt to poor nations. theguardian.com/commentisfree/… @tianran

Philanthropy really is a joke. This woman with a net worth of $407m is organizing "a walk in Tuscany" to raise just $200k. If she just wrote the cheque herself directly it would be the equivalent of somebody with a net worth of $1m donating less than $500.
The US has more than enough global leverage to get a credible 'secure border' agreement in place that ultimately gets as close as possible to protecting Palestinians from what happened (and is also in Israel's best interest) and allow them both to move forward independently.
