What would the effects of modern monetary theory be on the average working person?

[[w/ Guy McPherson)Quote:
Climate change may have already done enough damage to the earth that whatever we do now to stop it may be too little according to Guy McPherson.

Donald Trump is not a billionaire according to tax reports released by the New York Times yesterday. Has Trump been a grifter this whole time? Running a con on America? Is he so broke that he is willing to sell out America to the Russians or other foreign powers?
Conservatives, of course, should be outraged by this but Julio Rivera of Reaction Times doesn't care that Trump's tax returns reveal that Trump conned the American people.
Do you share Julio Rivera's optimism about Donald Trump or are you upset that Donald Trump pretended to be a billionaire to become president even though his tax returns prove that wasn't the truth?
