Thread: I've been rereading (and reading more) material about the Civilian Conservation Corps in response to the breakout of green JG discussions this week. No one should ever speak on this topic again until they've read at least one book/dissertation on it. There's tons! 1/N

One minor quibble I have with the JG - BIG arguments is that proponents of the first insist that inflation will be minimal compared to a guaranteed basic income. But the really good stuff, like planting 2 billion trees like the CCC did does not increase production in the conventional sense. So I'd expect the effect on inflation to be broadly the same.
