摘要

现代货币理论(MMT)在宏观经济学的流行政策辩论中已经上升到突出地位。MMT经济学家主张建立就业保障计划，他们认为这将带来价格稳定。通过使用时间一致性的基准模型来补充就业保障，我们得出结论，一旦考虑到政策制定者的激励，就业保障对稳定价格没有任何帮助。我们将这一计划与另一项旨在维持物价稳定和充分就业(NGDP目标)的竞争性提议进行比较。

On price stability with a job guarantee

Modern Money Theory (MMT) has risen to prominence in popular policy debates within macroeconomics. MMT economists argue for creating a job guarantee program, which they argue would generate price stability. Using a benchmark model of time consistency supplemented with a job guarantee, we conclude that once policymakers' incentives are considered, the job guarantee does nothing to help stabilize prices. We compare this program to a competing proposal to maintain price stability and full employment, NGDP targeting.
