@k1llspam @Suncorp_Bank I'm trying to get travel insurance for a trip leaving this evening, which I'm unable to do because of this shemozzle. Locked out, with no way to reset password on either the app or website.

@Suncorp_Bank @ypf9994 So why can't I access my account still? I'm locked out and the reset password process isn't working (app or web):
"Sorry, our system is temporarily unavailable at this time to process your request. Please try again later."
Been like this all day, with phone waiting times > 1hr.

@PatriciaNPino Because it's a pump-and-dump scheme to transfer more wealth to the already wealthy.

@RBASHAGGER Ahh, the old 'clever tactic' of paying $1m over reserve!

@MGCTrekkie @ericneyman @TutorVals Claude still gets it wrong using 'lowest'. It needs a couple of more prompts to get it right.

[clivado @clivado]

@MichaelPascoe01 So they want an overall reduction in private sector wealth. Got it.

@rrkinter @SKandFriends Well obviously, because MMT simply describes how the monetary system we have right now works. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[clivado @clivado]

@hanselang @dotkrueger It's literally describing the monetary system we have right now. That's all.

@twitfoz @reynoldsrd This isn't even a law.

“The elected govt is changing its fiscal policy and I disagree because...”

[clivado @clivado]

@SumOfAllTears @weatherdai @enbyentropy Why are the claims about a fiscal “price anchor” via a JG wrong? I know this is more of the prescriptive, rather than descriptive, part of MMT, so would be interested to know why.

@BenPhillips_ANU Does lowering HECS mean the government suddenly moves onto the gold standard or something? It doesn't need to raise taxes before spending, in fact the opposite is true. It's just a political decision.

[clivado @clivado]

@nikstankovic_ You contradict yourself. On the one hand you say China accumulates USD and swaps for bonds to get interest instead of the cash just sitting there doing nothing (correct); and on the other hand you say the government 'borrows' by going into debt so it can spend.

@mouldie099 @cambridge_peter If the blind bend is so obvious, why not just pull over for a moment to let faster moving traffic get by instead of holding everyone up?

@emoEddi @two0ate @MarcG_420 @mouldie099 @ev1lbear In Europe "Everyone has the right to freedom of expression. This right shall include freedom to hold opinions and to receive and impart information and ideas without interference by public authority and regardless of frontiers." so what do you mean, exactly?

@tonywestonuk All government spending is money printing

[clivado @clivado]

@RobPeffer @Reservoir_Frit @MichaelSpring17 @ArtistAffame @HarryFromSyd @GrogsGamut @HughHughDaniel MMT simply describes how modern money works. Please show an alternative stock-flow consistent model of how the system actually operates if MMT is 'insane' and 'dumb'.

[clivado @clivado]

@BertieFigueres @StephanieKelton Indeed. Get rid of them altogether and pay interest on excess reserves to hit the target rate instead.
