Extremely worrisome. Modi's govt poised to vote to destroy the rural job guarantee tomorrow. They've long tried to sabotage MGNREGA w/ funding cuts, but these reforms are new level of assault. Only the National govt can uphold the rights-based mandate & supply the needed finance.

Every single unit of spending which takes place by a currency-issuing government involves the creation of money. In the UK, every single pound, every single day. Subsequent bond auctions then involve swapping one form of currency for another - saving deposits for sight deposits.
