MMT requires the government to raise taxes once inflation starts rising due to previous money printing.
What are governments doing now? They are actually thinking of handing out more money to people to offset the effects of inflation (thereby making the inflation worse).
In other words, MMT requires governments to always do the right thing, which they don't.
That's ignoring the theoretical underpinnings of MMT which are by no means unassailable.
That’s a common misconception. Have you seen any MMT economist advocate a tax increase recently?

> MMT, for those who aren’t familiar with it, is a small, cohesive group of people who go around telling the government to borrow more and spend more.
Which is fundamentally incorrect and betrays a misunderstanding of MMT so his opinion is irrelevant
