Mainstream (neoliberal/monetarist) economics has abundant academic proponents and is demonstrably flawed, so I am not sure counting the number of academic proponents is much of an indicator of anything other than what is academically fashionable.
In a similarly patronising way to your comment, I suggest checking out http://bilbo.economicoutlook.net/blog/ http://bilbo.economicoutlook.net/blog/ if you are interested in reading more criticism of neoliberalism and learning more about MMT than is presented on the wikipedia page.
- force_reboot 10y agoYou keep making assertions, but my original point in posting that reference, is that if your style of argumentation is to make assertions, and then pass the reader off to another source to verify your assertions, then all other things being equal, the source with the most academic backing is going to win. Either you directly argue the point, or you argue by authority. If you argue by authority, academia has the most authority.
