Magic Money Theory (Ft. Warren Mosler)

Warren Mosler, the founder of Modern Monetary Theory (MMT), comes on 1Dime Radio to talk about MMT, what Elon Musk's DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) gets wrong, Trump's tariffs, inflation, and an alternative for a better tax system.DISCLAIMER: The audio for this is not very good because Warren Mosler had bad internet on his end, but after some editing, now hopefully, it's still listenable.Get access to The Backroom and over 55 exclusive podcast episodes on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/OneDime⁠⁠Timestamps: 00:00 Magic Money Computers?1:08 Trump's Tariffs 4:21 Unpacking Modern Monetary Theory (MMT)9:10 Spending and Inflation31:37 Taxation, Abolishing the IRS34:32 Job Guarantee vs. Universal Basic Income44:12 Taxes, Tariffs and TradeCheck out Warren Mosler's work and his books such as "Soft Currency Economics" and "Seven Deadly Frauds" : https://moslereconomics.com/More 1Dime MMT Content: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLyytc2-LIrN7kIRyPXghWjeb4MV_DDqBK&si=s7aBz5IfLSYEK6X3Follow me on Instagram: ⁠instagram.com/1dimeman⁠Outro Music by Karl CaseyGive 1Dime Radio a 5-star rating if you enjoyed the show!
