Conference Calendar: Modern Monetary Theory
Jul

Conference Calendar: Modern Monetary Theory

Modern Monetary Theory says that governments can create and spend money without regard to how much taxes they collect, and that taxes are mainly useful for controlling inflation. That’s revolutionary, but is it true? Does anyone even know?

The discussions are free and unstructured, although a facilitator will be present to help make things click.
