Summary

'How’re you going to pay for it?’ It's a refrain progressives hear every time any social program is proposed. Professor Stephanie Kelton and proponent of Modern Monetary Theory has an idea: the government can make it rain, help the people, and f*ck the haters. Deficit spending isn’t actually that big of a problem, she says, so long as inflation is controlled through taxes. Francesca and comedian Nato Green wrap their heads around this novel and life-saving conception of the economy. Plus, Israel’s aggression knows no limits as it bombs journalists and civilians and displaces families from their homes. And finally, the CDC guidelines that have our heads spinning and essential workers rightfully pissed off.
