Is there any theory that the Lofty Spud does not instinctively reject? I am sure that even his attachment to MMT is to a heretical sideline that no one else follows

That’s good – but his idea on how to cut the cost of paying interest on QE is even better.

Seriously, it’s worth a read for the sheer unadulterated fuckwittery of it.

His plan in simple terms – reverse QE, but give the banks back totally illiquid perpetual bonds.
