They agree on much: both see class war, urge solidarity between higher earners and the working class, and want fairer wealth distribution. The key difference is government finances. Gary’s view, under current law, is that the UK can run out of money without borrowing or taxing. Richard, via Modern Monetary Theory, says a sovereign currency issuer can’t run out — only inflation and resources limit spending. Gary works within today’s rules; Richard wants reform. It’s partly semantics, but the framing shapes politics, austerity, and what’s possible. WLX87cHI8Mx GNztnyL2bCP 2WOBpdAAIVh CxcUUtgyb5a wisiXKrKCiL N77dPc1Qo0H mUOdjcimLvc s5BFBYZuJIM
