Tax the Rich because they're taking more than their fair share of resources & power, not because we need their money to feed a hungry kid.

When it comes to a Green New Deal people ask: āHow will you pay for it?ā
As though we're not paying for it now in loss of life & billions of dollars in destruction.
The Green New Deal isn't radical.
Transforming our energy system saves lives, saves money & saves the planet.
The 'national debt' is already 'the money'. Gov does not create new money to "repay" the debt.
"A small group of progressive economists ...or M.M.T... argue that the Treasury can simply print enough money to repay the debt." - @DLeonhardt, @NYTimes
Regarding interest payments on the debt: Congress could decide tomorrow to stop issuing treasury bonds, not pay the interest (as a regressive give-away of FREE MONEY to those who already have money), and not have this thing we call the 'national debt'.

Can we afford not to go extinct?
@NYTimes decides to focus on the 'national debt' today, in the midst of horrific #climate destruction
Watch FINDING THE MONEY doc for a new perspective on real limits and possibilities:

I watched FINDING THE MONEY last night. šæšŗ
Very worthwhile. MMT seems like one of the most important ideas of our time.
Didn't discuss student loan debt much, but otherwise good film. Thanks @StephanieKelton for spreading this important conversation.
plenty of folks who follow me vigorously agree, half-disagree, or fully disagree with @StephanieKelton -- regardless of what camp you are in this was a really fun and intellectually lively documentary that's worth watching and engaging with:

āThe debt isnāt the reason we canāt have nice things. Our broken thinking is. To fix our broken thinking, we need to overcome more than just an aversion to big numbers with the word debt attached.ā
