The Mathematical Model of Modern Monetary Theory: One Mathematical Model of Modern Monetary Operations — Steve Keen
Like it says. But a simplified model, as Steve Keen points out.
This sounds interesting but the link justs wastes your time an brain signing up etc for blogger.com. What's the name of the relevant blog? Is there a direct link?
The really great economists (Keynes, Milton Friedman, Warren Mosler etc) use almost no maths to set out their ideas. They are then followed by crowd of time wasters in academia who set out their ideas using strange mathematical symbols...:-)
Steve's model makes the mistake of failing to link the currency to anything real. So it is unanchored and lacks the feedback loop from injection to production via the real circuit that does all the magic.
But it is nice to see Steve finally put the government sector over the top of the credit model he's been pushing all these years. It's just a pity it's in supplicant mode rather than in the driving seat.

ReplyDeleteYes it is a shame the link does not take you anywhere. I would have liked to read it as well.

The link is now fixed. Sorry about that.
