How much of politics comes down to those who pay taxes vs those who want the taxes of others to support them? MMT will be tested more and more as demographics dictate that the takers, with their useless degrees, useless or non-existent jobs, low salaries, and low tax burdens, inexorably outweigh the providers. Better hope America can squeeze enough out of Gates and Bezos.

Btw, another good American Thinker piece, thanks for posting it Jolly. It's nice to discuss some high quality intellectual writing on TNCR.

The actual economic contributions from both groups isn't as clear cut as that.

I'm not saying economics dictate votes. Even if they did, tribalists won't give an inch about whether one side is better than the other. (Have you heard that the economy does better under Democrat presidents than Republican presidents? If you haven't heard that, feel free to skim any conversation in any forum anywhere online. That factoid will be mentioned within the first three responses. Thus, anybody who has an issue with MMT inspired Democrat economic plans, is simply ignorant.)
