New Economic Perspectives has the article News Conference for a Paradigm Shift.

What would you say if the President announced the following in a news conference?

“So now we come to the third great paradigm shift of modern civilization, which I am going to announce today. Right now, in fact. Here it is: Sovereign governments do NOT have to collect tax dollars in order to have dollars to spend. In fact, exactly the opposite of what we have believed for so many generations actually is the case: In order for people to have dollars with which to pay taxes, the sovereign government has to SPEND dollars first.

Crazy, huh?
