Stop using the "Taxes pay for" argument.
It only benefits austerians. It is factually wrong as well and right wing propaganda.
Use "The People's money" instead.
Read #MMT and #TheDeficitMyth
The republicans are using the #NationalDebt as a sledge hammer & they are getting away with it because the majority of Americans & Congress are ignorant about how the economy works. Please study #MMT, read #TheDeficitMyth by #StephanieKelton #thedeficitmyth.

I say this regularly. People need to stop using the "taxes pay for" rhetoric.
It is not true at the federal level and plays into the hands of austerians.
It is somewhat true at the local and state level.
Use "The People's Money"

Also: The FEDERAL GOVERNMENT is NOT supposed to be "run like a" [private] "business". It is the RULE SETTER for the macroeconomy, not merely one of its rule followers. So the *basic* premise of ACYN's statement is stupid and wrong as well.

#PublicEducation #Unions could really benefit from running #TheDeficitMyth reading groups and #MMT workshops. These would help members answer questions like, 'how are we going to pay for it?' And 'how can we solve the #TeacherShortage'? #PoliticalEconomy

Liberals should really learn to STOP using "tax money" and similar phrases.
It is factually wrong.
It plays right into the hands of austerians.
Preferable is "The People's Money."
See #TheDeficitMyth #MMT @stephaniekelton.bsky.social
As with so many topics, Elon is wrong about "deficits." The net positive contributions for the public's well being (i.e., deficit) or a net negative contribution for the well being of citizens (i.e., surplus) is the reality of our fiat $. You see what they have done? #TheDeficitMyth
Det økonomiske råderum har det med at stige eller falde alt efter hvad den politiske retorik kræver.
Et eller andet sted sidder der nogle politiske økonomer, som har læst om moderne monetær teori #MMT, men tør ikke indrømme det over for sig selv, politikerne eller borgerne. #TheDeficitMyth #dkpol

Rebuild public services.
Renationalise anything that the country & its people need to thrive
Expand public transport across the country & make it free or cheap.
Just make people’s lives better.
The more that people would be open to what chartalists and MMT economists are saying, we would be 100000000 x closer to all these things. Finding the money is not the issue, ever. It’s about resourcing projects. WWII was the prime example for this. #TheDeficitMyth #FindingTheMoney
The US dollar is the IOU of the federal government. Any “lack” of funding for ANY fed govt program/service is entirely a political choice. The corporate Trojan horses in govt love to defund programs into “not working” to privatize. $$ scarcity at fed level is artificial. #TheDeficitMyth
#LearnMMT... STAT!! #TheDeficitMYTH #ELIMINATEpoverty
The Business Council proves it does not understand the nature of public finance. See for instance #TheDeficitMyth
Best read, @stephaniekelton.bsky.social #TheDeficitMyth
Describing the mechanisms of gov financing.
