Yes, Warren, you are The Godfather, the progenitor of MMT. To those who say it is ‘kooky’ or gibberish, I say look at these economists who were saying exactly the same things as you and your colleagues. The specialness of your creation of MMT is in putting these concepts together into a coherent framework.

Just saying I came up with what is now MMT back in 1992 and wrote Soft Currency Economics in 1993 without having read:
Innes
Godley
Knapp
Keynes
Lerner
or any other writings related to MMT's contributions.
I introduced it to the academic community in 1996 who then looked back and associated it with some of the writings of those economists.
