  1. Behind the Money Curtain: A Left Take on Taxes, Spending and Modern Monetary Theory 
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 2018
    Taxes do not fund government spending.That's a core insight of Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) whose radical implications have not been understood very well by the left. Indeed, it's not well understood at all, and most people who have heard or read it somewhere breeze right past it, and fall back to the taxes-for-spending paradigm that is the sticky common wisdom of the left and right.
  2. Bleeding the Patient: The Debt/Deficit Hoax Exposed
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 1993
    An edited transcript of a four-hour discussion held by nine progressive political economists. Discusses the hysteria around the government debt-deficit issue and the difficulty in developing counter-arguments.
  3. Connexions Digest
    Issue 54 - February 1992- A Social Change Sourcebook
    Resource Type: Serial Publication (Periodical)
    First Published: 1992
  4. The Deficit is No Accident
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 1997
    The deficit and national debt were created intentionally by politicians of both parties, to destroy social programs which give working people some protection against unrestrained corporate power
  5. Obama's "We Got No Money" Rap
    Why It Augurs a Sinister Banksters' End Game
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 2009
    Obama is deliberately precipitating another crisis on the advise of his chief lieutenants. Summers and Geithner are steering the economy back into recession so they can implement the same austerity measures and "structural adjustment" programs which have been used throughout the developing world. It's "starve the beast" all over again. As the stimulus dries up, revenue-depleted states will be forced to auction off public lands, resources, parks and other assets to the highest bidder. The banksters and robber barons will feast on the country's treasures while the middle class is crushed by the freefalling dollar, lost home equity, and persistent high unemployment.
  6. Privatizing Social Security: Who Wins?
    Against The Current vol. 114
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 2005
    Over the years, there have been numerous attempts and proposals to privatize the social security system. It was a key Republican platform item in the 2000 election. The idea was subsequently thwarted by the small matter of the stock market bust that wiped out $8 trillion of market value, and caused a 60% drop in the NASDAQ over the first two years of Bush's first term.
  7. Seven Public Sector Myths
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 1991
    Fact and fiction about the public sector.

Mission Connexions exists to support individuals and groups working for freedom and social justice. We work to maintain and make available a record of the theory and practice of people struggling against oppression and for social change. We believe that the more we know about the struggles, victories, and defeats of the past, and about those who took part in them, the better equipped we will be to bring a new world into being. Connexions maintains a physical archive of books and documents, and is engaged in an ongoing project to build and expand an indexed digital archive of documents. We try to feature a wide variety of resources reflecting a diversity of viewpoints and approaches to social change within our overall mandate of support for democracy, civil liberties, freedom of expression, universal human rights, secularism, equality, economic justice, environmental responsibility, and the creation and preservation of community. We are internationalist in our orientation, but as a Canadian-based project we feature an especially extensive collection of Canadian documents and profiles of Canadian activist organizations.
