95 Minm | United States of America | Documentary | 2024-05-03
Menemukan uang mengikuti ekonom Stephanie Kelton dalam perjalanan melalui teori uang modern atau "MMT". Kelton secara provokatif menegaskan jam utang nasional yang berdetak di atas di New York City sebenarnya bukan hutang bagi pembayar pajak AS sama sekali, atau beban bagi cucu -cucu kami untuk membayar kembali. Sebaliknya, Kelton menggambarkan utang nasional sebagai hanya catatan sejarah dari jumlah dolar yang diciptakan oleh pemerintah federal AS yang saat ini ditahan di kantong, sebagai aset, oleh kita semua. MMT masuk ke media dengan jurnalis yang bertanya, "Apakah kita sudah memikirkan bagaimana pemerintah menghabiskan uang, semuanya salah?" Tetapi para ekonom top dari seluruh spektrum politik mengutuk teori itu sebagai "ekonomi voodoo", "gila" dan "teori crackpot". Menemukan uang melacak konflik sepanjang jalan kembali ke cerita yang kami ceritakan tentang uang, menyuntikkan harapan baru dan memberdayakan negara -negara di seluruh dunia untuk mengatasi tantangan terbesar abad ke -21: dari perubahan iklim hingga ketidaksetaraan.
FINDING THE MONEY follows economist Stephanie Kelton on a journey through Modern Money Theory or “MMT”. Kelton provocatively asserts the National Debt Clock that ticks ominously upwards in New York City is not actually a debt for us taxpayers at all, nor a burden for our grandchildren to pay back. Instead, Kelton describes the national debt as simply a historical record of the number of dollars created by the US federal government currently being held in pockets, as assets, by the rest of us. MMT bursts into the media with journalists asking, “Have we been thinking about how the government spends money, all wrong?” But top economists from across the political spectrum condemn the theory as “voodoo economics”, “crazy” and “a crackpot theory”. FINDING THE MONEY traces the conflict all the way back to the story we tell about money, injecting new hope and empowering countries around the world to tackle the biggest challenges of the 21st century: from climate change to inequality.
