Event – Exploring the basic principles and myths surrounding MMT, Brisbane, October 5, 2021
Here is a video of a presentation I made yesterday to a group of financial professionals in Brisbane. They are running a series on Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) and had originally invited me to debate a gold bug type from the US.
I declined given that the person in question had made a series of vapid (being generous) comments about MMT and spending time with that level of hostility would have been a waste.
So they decided to run the series over two weeks – with my presentation yesterday and his next week. The twain shall never meet!
The talk went for about 30 minutes and is quite elementary – more to give a feel for what a skeptic needs to keep under control before launching into an attack on our work.
Some questions followed.
