An economics, investment, trading and policy blog with a focus on Modern Monetary Theory (MMT). We seek the truth, avoid the mainstream and are virulently anti-neoliberalism.
The connection goes back to the metals... (libertarians being also notorious metal-lovers...)
The chattel slavery people were using other people whom they would put in bonds in enterprises set up to result in their maximum increase in possession of so-called "precious metals"...
The slave 'owner' people didnt have to pay wages in monetary forms, they just made the slaves produce their own room and board as part of their duties and this would result in maximum retention of metals for the "owners"...
The whole context of that era was one when we were still under the metals... this has to constantly be taken into account in any historic analysis...
Metal-lovers would do literally anything to get a hold of more metals... chattel slavery just one of many deranged behaviors we can see today looking back thru the lens of history....
I am soooo thankful I have been born in an era when we on "team human" have perhaps finally thrown the yoke of the metals for good after being under them for almost 2,000 years...
