@ne0liberal Neoliberalism prioritized cheap consumer goods. That’s one way to lower inflation (increase denominator). The cost was hollowing out of the middle class & rise of populism. I am saying massively increase production & productivity here which will create jobs and be deflationary. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

@besttrousers @ne0liberal I am talking about public private investment to build new plants (steel we need for offshore wind), batteries, EV and to increase productivity. You can have deflation by having exploited labor in China but that hollows out the middle class. Or you can produce more stuff here! — PolitiTweet.org

@mullymt Perhaps in this day and age you can start a petition to strip me of my economics degree from University of Chicago :) Ha! People should read Becker, Heckman on importance of investment in human capital and tech. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

@ne0liberal Inflation is too much money chasing too few goods. Increasing production and productivity grows the denominator. What am I missing? — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

In 2008, we needed massive support to boost consumer demand. In 2020, we needed to support demand AND supply. What should Democrats say about inflation? We need public & private investment to produce & make things in America. This will create high paying jobs & be deflationary. — PolitiTweet.org

@Economic_Fugazi Yes our focus must be on the working class. But there are a lot of middle class folks we need to win also that care about their retirement and 401(k). A number of Obama/Trump voters. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Democrats must be the party of production & prosperity. This is the moment for America to resume our status as the workshop of the world, invest in tech, and create good jobs in every rural area, mid-size city, & metropolis. That leads to a market boom, rising 401k & GDP growth. — PolitiTweet.org

Powerful as always. @mehdirhasan is correct @POTUS. — PolitiTweet.org

We provide free elementary and high school education as a public good — why should community college and vocational schools be any different? We need College for All. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

.⁦⁦@ewarren⁩ is 100% correct that we must deliver student loan relief, a stock ban, a bold climate package, and lower drug costs to keep our promises to working families. The midterms will turn on whether we deliver on the progressive agenda. https://t.co/MAcMEBRAmj — PolitiTweet.org

Every day that passes is another day we haven’t passed climate legislation. We must get this done before the midterms. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Thank you, @BradBannon, for highlighting my book “Dignity in a Digital Age.” By investing in Americans with policies like Medicare for All, free public college, and universal pre-school we can both strengthen our economy and help working families. https://t.co/6TZZ065CBi — PolitiTweet.org

I can’t believe they still have this guy on TV. He was relevant about 20 years ago! Anyone from the Republican or Democratic caucus today would be more insightful about the state of politics. Time for weekly shows to do an update to stay in touch! https://t.co/wtlphSiWhr — PolitiTweet.org

California Democrats need to deliver single payer. The top of the ticket campaigned on this promise in 2018. @Ash_Kalra had a strong bill. We have both chambers. Let’s have an up or down vote in both chambers, and have our statewide officers endorse this! — PolitiTweet.org

@phillyprosper @maureendowd Actually, my wife’s diversified family trust from before marriage sold these years ago just to be factual. I have never traded stocks, and it’s not my money. — PolitiTweet.org

Instead of helping to relieve pressure on the consumer, Big Oil is planning increased stock buybacks and dividends this year. Tax their excess profits and give Americans a gas rebate. — PolitiTweet.org

The average federal student loan debt is $37,113. That’s $37k that young people could instead put toward buying homes, supporting their families, and more. It’s time to cancel this student debt. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

A brilliant column by @maureendowd about a terrific book by @AriRabinHavt @BernieSanders has earned an important place in American history. Medicare for All, free public college/vocational, $15 wage, stronger bargaining rights, & bold climate policy are now Democratic goals. — PolitiTweet.org
