It is approaching that time of year once again: Modern Money Meme Week!

Each day will have an MMT-related theme. You can make memes to participate, and creators of the best ones will get a free shirt!

What are your ideas for the themes-of-the-day? We want to hear from you!

@ketagoesglobal @msalo71 @IndivisibleNet @realDonaldTrump From experience, I can tell you that the people who ask to record the talk, the people who do record the talk, and the people who post it online, are often entirely different sets of people, who never communicate or meet.

Nice to come home to this after a long and crummy day. My prize from the #ModernMoneyMemeWeek contest. 👍 Thanks again @DeficitOwls !

@ketagoesglobal @msalo71 @IndivisibleNet @realDonaldTrump And @DeficitOwls will be happy to take any questions you might have 🙂

@ketagoesglobal @msalo71 @IndivisibleNet @realDonaldTrump No, you absolutely DO need to understand this, because 99% of people are getting it wrong, falsely believing that we’re “broke” when we’re not, and it’s preventing us from demanding nice things. Everybody needs to get this stuff #LearnMMT

Ladies, if he:

- constantly is concerned about money
- won’t stop talking about accounting
- believes money is a social relationship with endogenous quantity
- explains how to “pay for” public services and overthrow neoliberalism

He’s not your man. He’s Modern Monetary Theory.

[Modern Money Memes @ModernMoneyMeme]

Ladies, if he:

- never runs out of money
- has no debt in foreign currencies
- has a floating exchange rate
- can ensure full employment without interference from domestic financial markets,

he’s not your man. He’s a monetarily sovereign government.

"One thing for sale...three folks to buy
And so the price goes up sky high!
With prices high you want a raise -
That starts a greater spending craze!
This crazy whirl is called inflation
And it alone can wreck a nation!
Let's all stop prices going higher
Be a saver-not a buyer!"

For a long time, there was a popular talking point that Japan's deficit was different from ours, because Japan just owed the money to itself, whereas we owed it to foreigners. Well...

[Modern Money Memes @ModernMoneyMeme]

And that’s it for #ModernMoneyMemeWeek! The MMT conference starts tomorrow, and we hope to see some of you, and if you can’t make it, don’t forget to stream it! Also, submissions for our competition are still open until Saturday, so get those memes in!
