Thank you for this excellent insider look at the "pay for" farce. I would love to see the "household budget" analogy put to rest, so that the adults can work again.

I am a baptized MMTer. Mosler got to me too. Discussions of tax hikes and deficits are a pointless waste of valuable political gaslight. We are in the middle of a climate crisis as America either catches fire, blows down, or drowns. Climate-related losses are a matter of pay me now, or pay me more later, but we all have no option but to pay. Congress cannot approve deficits increases due to climate losses because climate is out of its control. What is not out of its control is hardening America's infrastructure to prevent future voter deficits that eventually wind up in our national deficit.
