MMT is an excellent systemic reform. Full stop. Its problem, like every reform, is it lacks adequate conceptual/paradigmatic analysis. The applied ideas behind/underneath our systems that create and re-inforce temporal universe AND personal/acculturated realities are where the real power for change exists.
Yes, its the framing of MMT that is inadequate, and that, again, is why we need conceptual/paradigmatic analysis. Debt is a loaded moral concept, when what we need is ethical analysis. Ethical analysis is the rational consideration of mere black and white/moral analysis. Debt itself is not unethical…only the monopolistic paradigm concept of Debt ONLY. The word ONLY designates it as a monopoly concept/paradigm. Break up that monopoly with the paradigmatic/diametrically opposed concept of Strategic Monetary Gifting
