Can someone explain the allusion being made to this iconic movie:

Wth does it have to do with MMT?

It’s probably a pun…

A pun is a deliberate misuse of wording i.e. "We did Nazi this coming" or "It was raining cats and dogs... I stepped into a poodle."

Excellent adventures are no match for morality plays.

The national debt is a morality play.

"Good people" believe in morals.

MMT is for heathens.
