Andrew - Green progressive@andyjen16.bsky.social · last wk.It’s so frustrating- you hear otherwise sensible journalists taking about “tax to spend”, “welfare or warfare”, “we can’t afford X”, “that’s the equivalent of Xp on income tax”. All embedded in a failed economic paradigm perpetuated by the wealth class and utter BS for a sovereign currency #MMT
Preach! 📣
MMTAction@mmt-action.bsky.social · 2w ago"Patient safety" debates miss the actual constraint: staffing, beds, equipment. The NHS doesn't have a safety problem because of red tape. It has one because the currency issuer chose not to fund it fully. That's a political choice, not a rules problem. #MMT #Economics #UKPolitics
🤦🏻♂️ 😡
Ketan Joshi@ketanjoshi.co · last mo.So.......how the hell did the New York Times get Australia's AI data centre story so wildly wrong? Albanese's new AI rules **WORSEN** their position by allowing more room for gas Check out my new piece at @thepointau.bsky.social for all the lovely, gory details thepoint.com.au/opinions/260...
Preach sistah! 👏🏻 A thinly disguised attack on civil rights, freedom of expression, protest etc.
stranger@strangerous.bsky.social · last mo.Jewish Australian Yasmin Johnson says to claim ‘River to the sea’ is antisemitic because some Jews are offended, is a “smear on the Palestine movement” Says during the civil rights era, racist white ppl also claimed to be threatened by black ppl. Feelings weren’t the point.💥

MMTAction@mmt-action.bsky.social · last mo."How will you pay for it?" stops most conversations cold. The Argument Builder gives you the evidence-based answer. Pick your policy, pull the data, and walk through the rebuttal step by step. No hedging. No jargon. Just the facts that win the argument. #MMT #Economics
👇🏻💯 The 000 emergency function doesn’t make a 10% return. Neoliberal privatisation i.e. privatisation with no accountability, this is inevitable.
stranger@strangerous.bsky.social · last mo.Sarah Martin rubbishes Barnaby’s China conspiracy theory on Telstra’s outage & points to the real issue “Telstra was privatised”🎯 “Telstra has fundamentally failed in its obligations to the country, coz it has no obligations to the country, only obligations to shareholders” 💥
I can see the DJT team repurposing this photo for their 250th media package…
Patricia Aas 🐢🏳️🌈@patigallardo.bsky.social · 2mo agoIt’s 43 minutes past midnight. This is downtown Oslo.
👇🏻Preach‼️
MMTAction@mmt-action.bsky.social · 2mo ago"We can't afford it." Wrong question. The real question is whether we have the nurses, the materials, the energy, the food. A currency issuer never runs out of pounds. It runs out of real things. Cost of living is a distribution problem, not a fiscal one. #MMT #Economics
What’s the before/after comparison for the Productivity Commission look like?
Greg Jericho@grogsgamut.bsky.social · 2mo agoThe Productivity Commission should be disbanded. Danielle Wood seems to have been duped by AI wallet inspectors
👇🏻💯
MMTAction@mmt-action.bsky.social · 2mo agoThe framing trap: "borrowing for investment" treats spending like a household taking out a loan. A currency issuer doesn't borrow its own money. It spends first, then drains reserves via bonds. The constraint is real resources and inflation, not finding billions. #MMT #UKEconomics
Karl, going where not even Piers Morgan will go. 🤦🏻♂️
marque lawyers@marquelawyers.com.au · 2mo agoTo interview Tommy Robinson is to interview a white supremacist, which is to validate white supremacism, which is one of the most racist things you can do, Karl. In saying which, we are giving you full credit for just being an idiot, not a racist yourself.

Lucy Hamilton@lucyham.bsky.social · 2mo agoWell this is appalling. Karl Stefanovic is in the UK interviewing the street thug who was converted out of the broad Neo Nazi-interconnected sphere into the Islamophobia project by Ezra Levant, founder of far right trash “Rebel News.” Funded by pro 🇮🇱 Read: open.substack.com/pub/lucyham2... #Auspol
One hundred f-ing percent 💯
MMTAction@mmt-action.bsky.social · 2mo agoInsourcing is fine. But why act like the government suddenly found money in the sofa? Currency issuers don't budget-constrain themselves. The real question: why did we ever outsource public work to extract private profit? #MMT #UKEconomics
A currency issuing government can pay for anything that is available in its own currency. $18B Q. Do you have the REAL resources and expertise?
Wolfgang Blau@wblau.bsky.social · 3mo ago“The real surprise from the OECD’s subsidy numbers is that it cost China less than $18bn in sectoral support over 15 years to build an industry that can now provide more clean power than the world can readily absorb.” www.ft.com/content/b6ca...

MMTUK Policy Research Group@mmtuk.bsky.social · 3mo ago(1/5) Richard Murphy raised real questions about the Job Guarantee. We've answered them. 4 million people employed at £15/hr, net cost £9,458 per person, Social ROI 140–180%. This is the economic conversation the nation needs. #MMT #economics #UKpolitics
apropos of nothing but zionist demands for exclusionary open carry zones for zionists, NSW Police use Firearm Prohibition Orders to target and criminalise Aboriginal people, from childhood, for their entire lives Btw in colonial settler states the social order is defined by who has the guns.
He's completely incompetent, even apart from being deranged.
