NYT Mag's Adam Davidson Praises Economic Exploitation

Good to see AlterNet picking up on MMT and MMT allies like Yves lately. Word is getting out.
After being a loyal NPR listener for years, I have really come to tire of them lately, and "Planet Money" with Davidson and others is a big part of it. The general NPR orientation these days seems all about defending the life-style and social power prerogatives of the haute bourgeosie. The economic analysis is very mainstream and very conservative.

NPR is the best of the worst.
