.Kamala Harris did an extremely effective job at the debate in demonstrating how absolutely unfit Trump is to become president. To win, she must expand her agenda to include popular solutions to the most important economic realities facing this country. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

For all those times people do a glib gloss on MMT, dismissing it as a thing that only has purchase in a country with reserve currency status, please read Ndongo Samba Sylla/nssylla.bsky.social’s chapter. (I’m really happy to also be in this collection with a chapter on the Volcker Shock).

Reminded of that lovely line invoked by Albert Pinto that capital is wholly nature's subsidiary.

“Countries in the global north don’t even bother to think about how rising their interest rates impacts the debt levels of countries in the global south.” Isabella M. Weber Thanks Progressive International for this ⭐️ lineup to discuss urgently needed reforms for a more just economic order

Our food in their hands: We all knew market concentration in the food sector is bad. But seeing this chart from Farm Action latest report is simply shocking.

Four days later. $60 billion in share buybacks and a ten percent increase in dividend payouts

A great day to talk #tax at the The White House. Reforms next year are a shot at a tax code that supports ordinary people and doesn't let billionaires and giant corps off the hook. Delighted to join an important convo with policymakers and allies about progress made and to come.

Now do it again!

Finally.
