Taxes don't fund national spending in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, the USA and several other countries. The Australian government isn't a user of the currency, it's the monopoly issuer. It *is* the money.</p><p>Dutton needs $4.3 trillion, Parliament authorizes the spend, and the Reserve Bank of Australia presses some buttons. Hey presto.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/MMT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MMT</span></a></p>

My message here is simply that it is not the money supply per se that destabilises the economy , but speculative practices.</p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@DrALJONES" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>DrALJONES</span></a></span> <br><a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/mmt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mmt</span></a></p>
