Stephanie Kelton

Stephanie Kelton is an American economist and author. She is a professor of economics and public policy at Stony Brook University and was the chief economist on the U.S. Senate Budget Committee. The Deficit Myth challenges everything you think you know about government spending — arguing that the way we think about deficits, debt, and government budgets is fundamentally wrong. The book presents Modern Monetary Theory in an accessible, compelling way. Her audiobooks and books offer listeners and readers a radical, accessible rethinking of how government spending actually works — economics that will challenge your assumptions about debt, deficits, and the public purse.
