Ladies, if he: - constantly is concerned about money - won’t stop talking about accounting - believes money is a social relationship with endogenous quantity - explains how to “pay for” public services and overthrow neoliberalism He’s not your man. He’s Modern Monetary Theory.

"One thing for sale...three folks to buy And so the price goes up sky high! With prices high you want a raise - That starts a greater spending craze! This crazy whirl is called inflation And it alone can wreck a nation! Let's all stop prices going higher Be a saver-not a buyer!"
