Excited to share that distributor made the MMT documentary Finding the Money free to watch worldwide.
FINDING THE MONEY explores Modern Monetary Theory (MMT), challenging conventional ideas about money, government spending, debt, and deficits.
Watch it free now on the Giant Pictures YouTube channel:

It's just false that MMT believes "spending has no consequences." The argument they always made was that spending is constrained ONLY by its consequences rather than by any inherent cap on the amount of money a sovereign government has available to spend.
The @wsj published a Craaazy piece invoking me by name, while conveniently failing to inform readers that inflation sits at the core of the MMT project (the second chapter of my book, The Deficit Myth, is literally titled "Think of Inflation.") So, yeah, spending (not just government spending) carries inflation risk (sometimes negligible, sometimes elevated).

This is a super cool website.
You can scroll around and look at any country's population pyramid, fertility rate, and mortality rate by year.

Gladstone: You may think, “How did we get here?”
For the First Peoples of this land, unfortunately, this has been ongoing since the birth of this country as we know it today.
So perhaps the question then is not, “How did we get here?” It’s, “How are we still here?”

The Library of Alexandria created the first catalog of all human knowledge 2,300 years ago, and a team of fewer than 20 people just finished the modern version and made it free for the entire planet.
It is called OpenAlex. The name is not an accident.
The ancient library had the Pinakes, a catalog mapping every scroll, every author, every subject. When the library fell, the map of what humanity knew fell with it.
For the last two decades, that map existed again, but it was locked up.
Elsevier owns Scopus. Clarivate owns Web of Science. If your university could not afford the subscription, you could not see the structure of science itself. Entire countries were priced out of knowing what research existed.
OpenAlex indexes 474 million scholarly works. Every author disambiguated. Every citation traced. Every institution and funder connected. It updates with roughly 50,000 new works every day.
The whole thing is CC0. Not just free to search. Free to download, copy, sell, and build on. The API allows 100,000 requests a day without an account.
The ancient library burned and the catalog was lost for two millennia.
The new one cannot burn. Anyone can hold a copy.

I just want to point out....
The amount of money the United States has spent on war in the last 67 days, is roughly the same cost that Bernie Sanders proposed for universal college. So the real question is never can we afford it, it's what we choose to prioritize.

Sci-Hub is an evil website that pirated 85M+ research papers and made them freely available
And now they've added AI to their database to make Sci-Bot.
It answers your questions using latest, full-text articles.
But DO NOT use it. We should all try to make billion-dollar academic publishers richer.
I'm putting the link below so you know how to avoid it.

Hundreds of millions of people throughout the world are immersed in extreme poverty. Yet, disproportionate wealth remains in the hands of a few. It is an unjust scenario, in the face of which we cannot fail to question ourselves and commit to change things. There is no lack of resources at the root of disparities, but the need to address solvable problems related to a more equitable distribution of wealth, to be achieved with moral sense and honesty.

Human civilization advances by inventing new ways to coordinate trust and resources at larger scales.
Each step requires a new credit architecture.

I graduated from the United States Military
Academy at West Point and was an Army Officer for 5 years. I was conditioned to believe all of the wars and conflicts the US has fought in were necessary to preserve freedom.
I don't claim to be a geopolitical expert, but I am now of the firm position that most, if not all, of the conflicts the US has been involved in were largely under false pretenses, the public was severely misled, a boogeyman was shoved in the public's faces to conjure support, and countless American and foreign lives were senselessly destroyed in the process.
Banking, multinational corporate interests, shadowy control structures (and in this case, in part, Israel) are likely the real reasons for these wars and conflicts.
