An MMT site bringing you dogma-free economics without the pleadings of self interest
Man, this argument is ridiculous. Each new article is even less helpful than the last. Not only can economists not agree on anything, they can't explain anything either.
I didn't understand TC's comments on the matter either, fwiw.
What all these arguments are missing of course is the 'I' of last resort - central bank reserves.And as usual the problem is that the equation is being read as an time based implication, not an equality at a point in time.So really I = S (ie I => S).
