@SimonGrothe @StephanieKelton A pity that it was Hyman Minsky's worst book! I always recommend CAN "IT" HAPPEN AGAIN" as the first book to read https://t.co/sy2vqccFf0; second, his real magnum opus JOHN MAYNARD KEYNES https://t.co/0ne7eMFJNt. Stabilizing? I agree with @paulkrugman for once, not worth reading
