The usual clap-trap from Mazzucato. For example she says Covid related assistance and/or the purchase of corporate bonds as part of QE “….should come with strings attached, such as requiring firms to adopt emissions-reduction targets and to treat their employees with dignity (in terms of both pay and workplace conditions).”

So employers who get Covid or QE type assistance have to abide by higher emissions standards and pay their employees more for given skills and experience than other employers? Never heard such nonsense.
