In this episode of the 1Dime Radio podcast, we discuss common arguments against Modern Monetary Theory (MMT). I am joined by Andrew and Jackson from the PEGS institute, a new leftist think tank that produces excellent research and videos on YouTube. Check out their channel!:

Here we will be addressing the most common arguments against Modern Monetary Theory such as:
-"MMT is just Keynsianism"
-"MMT is just printing money"
-"MMT is a policy that has been tried"
-"MMT is nothing new"
-"MMT is social democracy"
-"MMT only works in the USA"
-"MMT requires imperialism"
-"MMT does not apply to the global south"
-"MMT is the dominant ideology"
-"What about Inflation?"
-"What about Venezuela and Zimbabue?"
-"MMT is incompatible with socialism"
