Publisher's Summary

Nothing is more important to the future of our world than correcting our political misunderstanding of money. And nothing is more challenging than explaining that misunderstanding — and correcting it — in a non-technical style that will engage the imagination of the average layman. 

This book strives to do just that. It examines why the "standard money theory" we habitually apply to the world is incapable of confronting the challenges of global climate change. It then provides an easy-to-follow layman's explanation of "modern money theory" (MMT) and shows why this revolutionary perspective of the Reserve/bank-dollar system we use today is the best hope the world has to actually pay people to do the work (and alter their consumer choices) to save the planet.
