About this episode
Warren Mosler, the founder of Modern Monetary Theory (MMT), comes on 1Dime Radio to talk about MMT, what Elon Musk's DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) gets wrong, Trump's tariffs, inflation, and an alternative for a better tax system.DISCLAIMER: The audio for this is not very good because Warren Mosler had bad internet on his end, but after some editing, now hopefully, it's still listenable.
