Thanks, you saved me having to post this.
What's your take on his take?
reply
I agree with him. FWIW though I often defer to Bob as he usually steel mans arguments and doesn't tend to take cheap shots. I don't mean I always agree with him but its a pretty safe bet for me to do so in most cases. I've learned a ton from Bob over the years either directly or indirectly through his recommendations on other economists. He does a very good job explaining different sides of views on economics. He's one of the few people that seem to really take MMT seriously and explain why they hold their views while most just mock them. Which is MUCH easier to do.

Huh, I need to see him steelman MMT. Because when I listen to MMTers themselves, I don't find much positive things to say. Maybe I'm missing something that Bob can point out to me.
