▶️ Hear the Bern: Episode 51 - The Deficit Myth with Stephanie Kelton [View all]
https://blubrry.com/hear_the_bern/57843036/51-the-deficit-myth-w-stephanie-kelton/
Economist Stephanie Kelton gives Briahna a crash course in monetary policy and why the United States would actually benefit from increased deficit spending - so long as it flows toward working people, not stock buybacks. Stephanie makes the case that, in the midst of the historic economic crash that COVID-19 is causing, the federal government could go much farther than last week's stimulus package to ease economic pain and prevent mass layoffs.
