I'm OP. I posted this because I discovered this with relation to an article I read about MMT, and wanted to understand exactly what you explained, from a person with your qualifications. Your response would have been so much better had it not contained the judgmental side-note.

I think debating and dismissing old bad ideas is something that every generation needs to do, lest they reinvent it.

My personal belief is that if we stop inflation, it will eliminate the pressure for continuous "growth", because money can now be a store of wealth that no longer leaks value and therefore there will no longer be a need for continuous investment. Perhaps the pace of society can slow down and people can relax. What would your expert opinion on that be?

I feel your own response to the response would have been so much better had it not contained the judgmental opinion.
