@GeofCox@climatejustice.social Any suggestions for further reading?
Edit: Is this a good place to start?

@heygarrett@social.lol I haven't read that Garrett - but I will now - Wikipedia is usually very good I think. I'll get back to you with some more links.

@heygarrett@social.lol It's something of a 'curate's egg' - "good in parts" - but note my post sets out only the uncontroversial, factual, basis of MMT - that Keynesians like Krugman accept - not the broader macroeconomic policy developments of Kelton, Mitchell, etc - and it's a bit out of date, and a bit anglosphere (I think the most important economics now is written in French - only some of which - eg. Piketty - finds its way into English, or Wikipedia).
