Stephanie Kelton — Just Use ‘the Computer’ to Give People More Money


Tom back in Iowa City catching up on posting.

I don't usually link to the NYT owing to the paywall and the propaganda, but this is an exception. The Times is making this op/ed available free. If you didn't catch Stephanie's opinion piece already, here it is.
Congress has all the firepower it needs. It just needs to send spending instructions to the Federal Reserve, as it always does.

All of the Times coverage of coronavirus has been made free. My local paper has done this too. I appreciate them doing this. Other papers should too.
