National Outreach Call – Framing MMT with Bill Mitchell

What makes the world go ‘round? If you believe it is money, you will want to join Real Progressives and special guest, Professor Bill Mitchell, on a Zoom call on Wednesday, January 22nd at 9 pm EST.

Professor Mitchell holds the Chair in Economics and is Director of the Centre of Full Employment and Equity (CofFEE), an official research center at the University of Newcastle in Australia.  He also holds the position of Docent Professor in Global Political Economy Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Helsinki, Finland. He is one of the original developers of Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) and is co-author of Macroeconomics, the definitive MMT textbook, and Reclaiming the State.

On our call, Professor Mitchell will discuss the Framing of Modern Monetary Theory, addressing why politicians talk about the “prohibitive” cost of progressive programs and how we can effectively counter this deceit.  After his talk, we invite you to ask questions.

Following Professor Mitchell’s question and answer period, our founder, Steve Grumbine, will give us a brief rundown of the ongoing activities at Real Progressives and Real Progress in Action.

Whether you’re a seasoned RP volunteer, new to the organization, or simply curious about MMT and Real Progressives, join this call on Wednesday, January 22 at 9 pm ET/6 pm PT.
