December 2020: Mosler shares Sri Lanka's plan to ride #MMT. April 2022: Sri Lanka suspends foreign debt payments. Suddenly, MMT advocates argue it wasn't MMT. 🤡 When the theory gets credit for the promise but none of the blame for failure, what exactly would falsify it?

2020: Mosler shares Sri Lanka's plan to ride #MMT. 🎪 2022: Kelton & Kaboub say Sri Lanka never understood MMT. If Kaboub knew that in 2020, why wasn't the warning made clear then? Before collapse: FYI. After collapse: Not real MMT. How clownish! 🤡

Keep sticking your head in the sand and denying what is self evident to everyone except you and #MMT. That's how cults behave. They always tell you everything you know is false only THEY HAVE THE TRUTH! And its never falsifiable of course. Have a nice day!

No, the Federal Reserve does not provide unsecured loans to banks. All discount window loans must be fully collateralized, as stated on the Fed's official website.

In a way, President Trump may actually "want" a recession. A recession achieves MOST of Trump's economic goals at once: 1. Lower US inflation 2. Lower treasury yields 3. Lower trade deficit (through tariffs) 4. Fed interest rate cuts 5. Lower oil prices After the recent surge in Treasury Yields, the Trump Administration has realized the trade deal headlines won't work anymore. A recession may be the "best" solution after years of inflation and "free" money.
What just happened? At 1:00 PM ET, the S&P 500 fell nearly -80 points in 30 minutes without any major "news." What actually happened was a weak 20Y Bond Auction which sent US Treasury Yields soaring. Investors MUST watch yields here. Let us explain. (a thread)

This just happens every day and yet the world leadership does not see a crisis in its inability stop it. It is time to tell Russia to halt it barbaric madness or face dire consequences from a united and outraged free world. It must stop.
Russia hit a regular residential building in Dnipro, home to 1 million people. I can’t even imagine the number of casualties. No one is safe. This is terrorism and Russia must be defeated and destroyed. Photo: Kyrylo Tymoshenko

The median American household would need to spend 46.3% of their income to afford payments on a median-priced home in the US, the highest % on record with data going back to 2006.

When they are reckless, everyone adores The Fed. When they actually do what’s right for the country, everyone loathes them..

Trump is threatening the courts, the DOJ, and the FBI. He's trying to convince everyone that anyone who opposes him is corrupt. It's a giant con. RT if you agree it's time to #StopTheCon

As shown by the recent study by Yale university economy is drowning badly. It's just the narrative by the rotten Russian government that everything works as planned. euronews.com/2022/07/28/sanc…
