It's truly an abomination: On a normal job you keep paying forever. 40 years!
“Why would I trust a government that mis-sold me a loan when I was a child?” is a very good question.

Wow... Writing this paper was a bit like watching a soap opera unfold. But it's out now in @bjpir.bsky.social
The big story is still: The ECB marched forward, with clear democratic authorisation, but not the Fed. Green central banking is much more democratic than people think.
It was an honor to be interviewed in-depth by @lalehkhalili.bsky.social @proteanmag.com
