Stephanie Kelton, bestselling author of “The Deficit Myth” and professor of economics and public policy, talks to Jordan Klepper and Ronny Chieng about changing our understanding of government spending through MMT, or Modern Money Theory. She also explains how the national deficit is not a number to be fearful of, but can be put to good use, and how government finance is far more flexible than you might think. #DailyShow #StephanieKelton #Money
