He is a faculty member of LBJ where Galbraith also teaches. So he should also be sympathetic to MMT ideas.Clonalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18290009954839887975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-32598035160654332372011-10-21T12:31:45.559-04:002011-10-21T12:31:45.559-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Clonalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18290009954839887975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-59064531026117096802011-10-21T12:10:20.377-04:002011-10-21T12:10:20.377-04:00According to Bill Black, who's on this committ...According to Bill Black, who's on this committee, Randy Wray is on the team, too!mike normanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03296006882513340747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-86391392469043172702011-10-21T11:33:03.531-04:002011-10-21T11:33:03.531-04:00Sounds to me like the deficit doves are going to b...Sounds to me like the deficit doves are going to be outnumbered.Tom Hickeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08454222098667643650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-53448203413027897132011-10-21T10:55:38.094-04:002011-10-21T10:55:38.094-04:00I gave Jeffrey Sachs an MMT flyer last Saturday in...I gave Jeffrey Sachs an MMT flyer last Saturday in Zuccotti Park. :-)Райчо Марковhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00919970958405073910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-68529768549501498452011-10-21T10:43:18.984-04:002011-10-21T10:43:18.984-04:00Tom Sachs has a new book out he's pumping saw ...Tom Sachs has a new book out he's pumping saw him on Yahoo!... made some deficit dove type statements similar to Stiglitz Ive seen.<br /><br />Black I saw a while back and he is 100% in paradigm (I was actually amazed).<br /><br />Warren commented he thinks Randy Wray has been added... so the numbers look good on this panel.<br /><br />Will move the ball forward, even if they marginalize Sanders (as usual), at least some high profile members of the academe will get some further exposure to MMT from the leaders...

And Stiglitz is already somewhat sympathetic to an MMT outcome, even if he doesn't seem to under the thinking behind it yet.<br /><br />If S & S come aboard, that would be a big deal. Dean Baker is on the edge already. This would give a huge push in the field of economics.<br /><br />Bernie Sanders has, of course, been on the right side or full employment with price stability, but he's been out of paradigm. If he comes out for MMT, that would strongly affect the progressive political environment, in which he is an elder statesman.<br /><br />So this looks promising.Tom Hickeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08454222098667643650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-29448685207132686972011-10-21T08:51:53.342-04:002011-10-21T08:51:53.342-04:00stiglitz and sachs egos may be the biggest impedim...stiglitz and sachs egos may be the biggest impediment to any mmt traction there (def doves)<br /><br />but it looks fortunately that sheer numbers are against the doves here for onceMatt Frankohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11978352335097260145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-27357905349273689062011-10-20T22:22:38.572-04:002011-10-20T22:22:38.572-04:00As I mentioned at Warren's, Tim Canova is grea...As I mentioned at Warren's, Tim Canova is great person to have on there as well.<br />"The Federal Reserve We Need"<br />http://prospect.org/cs/articles?article=the_federal_reserve_we_needbeowulfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14987548132065830204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-42614034858902569062011-10-20T21:08:45.708-04:002011-10-20T21:08:45.708-04:00Excellent news!
