Thanks to The Herald for also mentioning my work with Resilient Economy. 5/5
The author of the article writes, "This article seeks not to take sides, but only to explain the theory as simply as possible to readers so they can make their own minds up." That is all that supporters of MMT ask for: a fair hearing. 3/5

No mainstream outlet in Scotland has ever been bold enough to publish such a long piece on Modern Monetary Theory #MMT#. The Herald on Sunday gave me (pictured), @DEhnts, Dr Alberto Polani and @ProfSteveKeen an opportunity to discuss the MMT lens. 2/5
