@DanielFiott Sure. But don’t sweat the details. The point here is that the folks who could end up in charge of this are not dinosaurs and we should not assume they will react this time the way they did after Crimea.

Will sanctions work? What if Russia’s political economy is more than men of violence, oligarchs and Sechin-style austerity hawks? What if MMT is in the Kremlin? What if Putin respond to sanctions by launching a "Russia Rescue Plan”? adamtooze.substack.com/p/chartbook-91… https://t.co/tXtfKSsINS

@M_C_Klein Don’t get hung up on MMT and money-printing Matt. This is all about fiscal policy. MMT was just a vehicle in Moscow in 2019 for talking about functional finance and alternatives to flat-out austerity.
