Episode description

A society riddled with debt is a society that is reluctant or unable to spend. A lot of that debt has now found its way into housing, with mortgages higher than ever. That’s money we’re using to pay off our home loan that we could be spending keeping the economy moving. In short, its slowing the speed at which money circulates. So, how do we fix it? The answer is get rid of the debt. And Steve Keen has a cunning plan. A monetary reset. How would it work? Phil Dobbie explores the idea in detail with Steve on today’s Debunking Economics podcast.
