Because it is Worth Repeating:

It's essential to understand that #MMT analyses international trade through multiple integrated levels of analysis:

1️⃣ Real resource movements - The physical transfer of goods and services between nations

Modern Monetary Theory: a 10-Part Model Levelling up my MMT again

I wrote this for anyone who wants to understand the broad conceptual underpinnings of Modern Monetary Theory, or MMT, a paradigm of monetary thinking that conservatives (and, for that matter, that many left-wingers) love to hate

It already does. Despite the name, it is really about the resource flows.

In war, civilians suffer, while the rich line their pockets.

Oil profits are up. Weapons companies are booming.

Meanwhile, schools and hospitals get bombed, and thousands die.

War makes billionaires and their corporations even richer. It’s just another business model for them.

He’s blocked me now. I get your point but it did undermine what I was doing a little. That person sees 1+1=2 and focuses on the 2 ignoring the 1s and + operation. The point I was attempting to make was that simple.

He even blocked himself for me, so I didn't have to. For that, I am grateful.

Everyone else enjoy what I can no longer read. And remember to have fun.😎

And that's how you take down an actual troll bsky.app/profile/lazy...

Therefore you are not following the logical steps proposed and jumping to your own already formed conclusions.
You could disagree with the logic but yu have to show you understand it first.
It is an insane proposition to convince you the sky appears to be blue, but is not blue.

Can these things b done? Yes. Does any MMT economist say because the a set value cancels out any printed money, additional or otherwise? No.
.

You should tank yourself for that.

For what it I worth, the sky appears blue but is not actually blue. It appears thus by the Rayleigh effect. Understanding the Rayleigh effect is like understanding monetary operations in a monetary economy and that's what MMT does. Just as theory is not a hypothesis but an evidence-based framework.

Cognitive limits confirmed. Cognitive buffers have collapsed and failed rather than achieving transformation.

Not at all. Just pointing out your lazy cognitive limits. They are quite relevant. I'm sure this will appear as a non-sequitur to you too. Is the sky blue?

An apology is a good start.
