People say the damnedest things... lets see what they are saying and see where this leads... Mentioned in this episode: Real Progress In Action YouTube

How quickly we have forgotten the amount of serious issues that face us. We have fallen back to orphaned politics and therefore the full measure of what we require has been forgotten or seems insurmountable. People always fall back to their recycling habits and feel they have done their part. They do not ask the right questions. We will solve that in this stream. Mentioned in this episode: Real Pr...

Someone asked me what MMT or Modern Monetary Theory is... it's been a minute... so I will be happy to go over it today in a layman friendly less jargony way. Tune in at 12 noon EST 4/22/2022 done! #MMT101 Mentioned in this episode: Real Progress In Action YouTube

In a need for likes and clicks, algorithms are driving behaviors that mislead with click bait and in many cases, are simply misguided people who, with little knowledge, simplify things to the point where they are actually saying the opposite of their intended message. Can the world survive the hot-takes and sausage? Mentioned in this episode: Real Progress In Action YouTube

Inflation is not a monetary phenomenon. #Inflation, #RichardWolff, #Austerity, #Neoliberalism, #Microeconomics, #Macroeconomics, #MMT, #CoOps Mentioned in this episode: Real Progress In Action YouTube

Recent conversations I have had with activists center around this term "Balance" and we are going to peel back the layers of this bad line of reasoning. Ever wonder why it is always ok to talk about Soap Operas or Netflix series but never subjects that matter? Ever wonder why that imbalance is confused for balance? Seems like bankruptcy, austerity, tsunamis, tornadoes, drought and famine will be t...

Faith No More once wrote a song called Epic and it is loosely the subject of today's episode of The Rogue Scholar... See... with an MMT informed mind, one can easily see a path forward economically and policy wise that would make all of our lives better INSTANTANEOUSLY... however, this ignores the reality that our political system is a sham understanding State Money as a Public Utility would requi...

Tilting at windmills with Don Quixote... it became the stuff of legend... the individuals that are understand the world around them are doing all they can to wake the zombie hordes... the same tired discussion points hit a point of diffusion... all are pushing in the right way and suddenly ignorant ideas and false narratives steal away the energy... similarly to how Sancho Panza must have felt try...

When a movement has forgotten the struggle because the struggle is too much to look at... the doom pill takes over. Inertia is death. Mentioned in this episode: Real Progress In Action YouTube

Real Resources are greater than Tax Credits Mentioned in this episode: Real Progress In Action YouTube

The Oscar goes to our electoral system and the political theater we are herded into to hyperventilate over the 2 minutes of hate they put on the mainstream media, the wargasms and the fact defying beliefs that we can door knock our way to progress. What cracks me up about US foreign policy and creating US/neoliberal friendly leaders around the world is we act like some how this isn't a domestic po...

A disturbing trend surfaces where people are unable to explain what the word theory means and are seeking to change the name without understanding the crucial external dependencies on the name and the resources based on hashtags and academic and scholarly work. This includes simple Google or YouTube searches as well. Here is a link to our very first episode of Macro n Cheese and it is all about Pu...

MMT isn't just for the USA! Based. Mentioned in this episode: Real Progress In Action YouTube

Building foundations vs appeals to authority and clap traps Mentioned in this episode: Real Progress In Action YouTube

Today's Rogue Scholar reviews inputs and outputs. Cause and effect. The ripple effect and dominoes falling. We begin to understand that nothing we do is done in isolation. Everything has consequences. Everything can be mitigated if proper planning is in place. But risk assessment and a deeper understanding of the connected tissue of policy will be key. Let's take a look at corporate tax policy. #G...

Setting the record straight Mentioned in this episode: Real Progress In Action YouTube

TINA or There is no alternative is the polar equivalent to black and white thinking... that there is no space between A and Z and that all roads lead to one and only one solution... this is the story of neoliberalism and it is the reason your gas prices are high and your wages are low and we do not have healthcare as a right or any other decent thing aside from war and austerity. Mentioned in this...

When you ask for an MMT analysis... you are in essence asking for the real analysis. It should not even have to be called an MMT analysis because that is separating MMT from the reality it presents. Every single item we observe can be understood through the MMT Lens and this is vital for us all to know and to embrace. Mentioned in this episode: Real Progress In Action YouTube

The Rogue Scholar Presents a theory of conflict with Russia, Ukraine, The IMF, EU, NATO and the Great Ukranian Resource Extraction which is all the IMF cares about. Liberalizing markets and implementing structural adjustments. Now add in NATO and the EU... this is geopolitics at its finest... but there is more to this than meets the eye... and sadly it is the same situation we have seen throughout...

The Rogue Scholar talks about money... today we are gonna talk about resourcing and planning major policy proposals and why proper resource planning is key to eliminating inflation constraints. Mentioned in this episode: Real Progress In Action YouTube
