GM10: MMT, Global Warming and the Uniqueness of the 2020 Crisis ft. Steve Keen

We are extremely honoured to welcome Steve Keen, the legendary Australian economist, to our podcast today. Steve is one of the leading critics of mainstream economics, and in our conversation provided a valuable alternative perspective to some of the critical issues facing us today. As you might expect, we did spend time discussing the COVID crisis and the potential policy options for addressing its economic effects, but we also touched on a range of other topics, from climate change to digital currencies, as well as giving Rob the opportunity to ask Steve about Brexit. ----- EXCEPTIONAL RESOURCE: Find Out How to Build a Safer & Better Performing Portfolio using this FREE NEW Portfolio Builder Tool Topics Discussed in this Episode:COVID crisis as a demand and supply shockDeflationModern Monetary Theory (MMT)The Wealth Effect’ vs free marketsFiat and Gesselian currenciesCentral bank digital currenciesThe EuroClimate ChangeGovernment Debt and Deficits ----- Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.
