File this under the heading economics is not even a dismal science, because mainstream economics isn’t even science. Economics could actually be a rigorous discipline, if orthodoxy can be kicked out.

“ In contrast to its attitude to private debt, which it ignores, mainstream economics obsesses about government debt. But this volte-face doesn't besmirch its record of being 100% wrong.”

Building a New Economics · It’s a Mixed Credit Fiat WorldBy Steve Keen

@GhostOnTheHalfShell Really enjoying this write-up.

The charts and the discussion of them remind me of the Bank of England publishing a report on something similar.
