It is really sad how quickly this was voted off the front page...

by digi_owl 8y ago
Nah, it is a passive-aggressive turn of phrase to try to make System76 look bad by being the "lesser" party. It is the kind of crap one would expect from a project spawned of the Gnome camp...

This leaves out the taxation side of things. In MMT, taxation acts as the ultimate sink. It is the combination of taxation and government spending that acts to "balance" the national economy. This flip the normal budget worries on
