The cover article was of most interest to me.  You may recognize the 
Solidarnosc banner.  The other banner refers to a struggle at the  Jakarta

Warren has fallen into the fatal trap that “scarcity-of-money” propagandists 
have been constantly setting and baiting for decades. State-funded public 
services don’t “cost” a country anything; they are injections of liquidity that 
improve the lives of those who are served, and unleash the spending power of 
the people who are employed to provide them; they also lend themselves to 
growth in union membership and power. This is why public services have been 
gutted under neoliberalism, and why blank-check deficit spending has been 
anathemized for anything but the military.

As Sanders advisory Stephanie Kelton succinctly puts it, money doesn’t grow on 
rich people. Government spending isn’t dependant on taxes (although taxation 
plays a role in keeping inflation in check, and in shaping the broad outcomes 
of an economy, even in class terms — i.e., which class has how much spending 
power). This is the main lie of neoliberalism (and its post-WWII precursors) 
that folks writing under the flag of “modern monetary theory” have been at 
pains to expose and debunk. Here’s a good piece on it:

"Modern monetary theorists believe that confusion around money has distracted 
economists from the real things that affect the economic health of society ― 
natural resources, technology, available labor. Money is a tool governments use 
to manage these variables and solve social problems. It is not a scarce 
resource that governments have to track down in order to pay for projects.

…

“‘The basic idea is that the government can’t run out of money,' Kelton said. 
'It creates money just by spending.’ 

“When people talk about government profligacy bankrupting their grandchildren 
or triggering a cataclysmic debt crisis, Kelton argues, they’re conflating the 
experience of a typical family, which has to get money from somewhere outside 
the household to meet expenses, with that of a sovereign government, which 
creates money as part of its basic operation.”

Warren’s perpetuation-by-silence of the lie that we “can’t have nice things” 
unless we squeeze money out of the rich is just further proof of her radical 
establishmentarianism.

*Britain's George V visited Ireland in July 1911.  The protests against
this visit were the first point we can see the coming together of the
forces which would launch armed rebellion five years later.  Crucial to the
protests was the Socialist Party, whose leaders included James Connolly and
Constance Markievicz.*
