In October’s show, Academy President Rinaldo S. Brutoco and Academy Executive Director Matt Renner discussed major domestic and international news including the debt ceiling and the implications of the current “governance by crisis” paradigm. During the lightning round, our hosts discussed the outlook for various asset classes including real estate, stocks and bonds.
Our guest this month was Marc Armstrong, Executive Director of the Public Banking Institute (PBI). Armstrong and PBI have been working to shift the understanding around the creation of money, to use the current rules of our monetary system to empower socially-driven, democratically controlled finance.
