[Andrés Bernal 🇨🇴🇺🇸 @andresintheory]

Stop asking Elon Musk to just “pay his fair share of taxes”. Let’s abolish his hoarding of wealth and power over society all together. Make him obsolete. Our government’s social investments don’t depend on his tax dollars. He depends on the public’s laws, subsidies, and workers

Basically the Nobel prize for institutional economics.
An award previously won by Hyman Minsky and our own Geoffrey Harcourt, among many very famous names.
Professor Randall Wray is a very worthy winner.

A job guarantee would create jobs in:

➡️ Housing
➡️ Education
➡️ Child care
➡️ Elder care
➡️ Arts & culture
➡️ Community infrastructure
➡️ Environmental preservation

It would also ensure that those in our community who already do these jobs are adequately compensated.

@videotroph joins @MaxSeijo to discuss method & the dangers of overly positive or negative orientations to the historical world.

We should have done this.

[Nathan FOIA Tankus @NathanTankus]

I'm happy for my success but there's something dark about getting funding to cover the Coronavirus Depression in detail but not being able to avert what I see coming and just continually covering things as they get worse and worse. Better a Cassandra than voiceless... but...

[Sara Nelson @FlyingWithSara]

Pass it on.

Make-work is applying for jobs that aren't there.

[videotroph @videotroph]

I'm extremely proud to share @thepublicmoney's open letter calling on universities to immediately bypass feckless state & federal legislatures & finance themselves directly with “Unis” supported by the Federal Reserve.

Share & organize! #Unis4all 🦄🌈
