At one point in the paper they put 'educated' in inverted commas, stating how the #education systems are failing against mythical #economicNarratives like 'growth can continue forever if it's in #serviceIndustries', or '#technology can save us'.
They're right, #perpetualGrowth itself is delusional, and its great to see them specifically target the 3.5% number #Keynesianism clings to. It doesn't delve into the #moneyPump specifically, which is unfortunate.
Do read the (15min read) paper.

FUN FACT: The #RomanEmpire "inflated" their currency by mixing increasingly more cheap metals with the #gold over time?
Thus our current flirtation with #Keynesianism is not a new 20th century thing, its as old as the Roman Empire! Just like that empire we squandered our wealth on #militarism.
Militarism that comes #homeToRoost?

Keynesianism is very efficient at producing #uselessJobs.
People in uselessJobs are a bigger drain on #society than the #unemployed, who often add to the #informalEconomy or #volunteer for a fraction of the income of the person undertaking the uselessJob.
The person performing the uselessJob is often paid very well to enable them to travel vast dististances and engage in activities to help them manage the pain of knowing they don't have a real job.

JobKeeper (in the #USA #PPPLoans) is rebranded #QE.
QE (#QuantatativeEasing) is rebranded #bailouts.
Bailouts are rebranded #keynesianism.
Keynesianism is rebranded #inflation.
Inflation is rebranded #moneyPrinting.
MoneyPrinting is #counterfeiting. Its fine but only if everyone on earth gets their share (see #UBI).

An obsession with 3% growth is an obsession in doubling every 21 years.
That's a #doubling of either #consumption or #financialisation (read the latter as #monetisation).
And #monetization is someone (today, disproportionately #BigTech) gaining economic #rents from something.
Imagine if we had a complete crash and people simply focused on maintaining, preserving and helping.
This world terrifies #oligarchy.
They use #keynesianism and #inflation to drain us.

Wondering if there is a specific gene related to a person's propensity to accept #keynesianism and #infiniteGrowth.
An obsession with increasing numbers is an #illness, but such an #obsession is baked into #KeynesianEconomics, which obsesses over 3% #growth.
Wonder if its the same gene that relates to #addiction and #hedonism.

Keynesian is a very fancy way of saying “#cheatingPeople".

"Was Keynes a Liberal or a Socialist?"
@witchescauldron
Its good that you do that. We run various tests ourselves. A lot of kids have no idea what is going on. That's okay because some are only teenagers or early twenties, but some of them can vote so you have to try to instill some sense of responsibility.
#Keynesianism as a response to #priceStickiness in #classicalLiberalism was a mistake. Breaking up the #monopolies that aggregate immense wealth into few hands would've been better, a bit of that happened, iirc, but maybe more.

@dsfgs all the progressives, from the Labour Party to the Democrats in US at their most radical are ONLY offering #brightgreen #Keynesianism so it's valuable to understand the history of what they are offering and to see how the neo-liberal #deathcult won out last time. our only choices are #fascism, #deathcult, #brightgreen liberalism, or something different, we are building the something different at the #OMN understanding history is always a good thing.

All these ill-effects of #Keynesianism just because of some so-called "#stickiness" of the #wages?
This #wageStickiness would only happen in a large corporation where you don't see the indiidual sacrifice and effort of the #businessOwner.
#SmallBusiness and medium-sized businesses would not have the stickiness problem mentioned, and simply justifies the notion of "#TooBigToExist".

@dsfgs #Keynesianism is the thing #neoliberalism is fighting agenst it's what the videos are the history of. In its day nobody was environmental so would not hold that agenst the theory, the updated system, that people like George Monbiot talks about would be #brightgreen which is as you say capitalism warmed up so better but no solution. The videos cover the 20th century from the view of this fight inside the power politics crew.

The 2nd episode of this is really over the top with #KeynesianEconomics, which abuses the environment like nothing we had seen before, and helped fund the rise of #Germany in the 1930's.
#Keynesianism is #deathcult stuff. People crow about it today under the label, #ModernMonetaryTheory (#MMT). Be super wary of them. The fact is we are living under MMT already, and it serves the #extremelyWealthy and well-connected. The #MMTPushers pretend that we don't have this, because…1/2
