In this episode of Macro n Cheese, economy expert and blogger Ellis Winningham joins Steve Grumbine to talk about the biggest economic myths, exposing lies that neoliberals tend to consistently tell mainstream such as the need to "reduce the deficit" or have a "Government surplus". Ellis' passion for economic justice leads him to promoting Modern Monetary Theory relentlessly.
