To say nothing of their zealotry and irrationality.<br /><br />But to demand of academic MMTers to go around fighting online MMTers seems kind of crazy, particularly when people like Quiggin are not above adding their own crop of misunderstandings and misrepresentations to that of online MMTers.<br /><br />Frankly, I don't know how that problem can be solved.<br />Magpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07528637318288802178noreply@blogger.com
