13 hours left to help Kickstart Minsky

Flattr this!

The Kick­starter cam­paign for Min­sky has been a success–almost $70,000 has been raised–but as with any soft­ware project, so much more can be done with more pro­gram­ming time. Each addi­tion­al $140 buys anoth­er hour of pro­gram­ming by both Dr Rus­sell Stan­dish & Nathan Moses. We’ve done a lot with just over 1,000 hours of pro­gram­ming fund­ed by the orig­i­nal INET Grant, and the mon­ey raised by Kick­starter will add rough­ly anoth­er 500 hours to that. But I esti­mate that to take Min­sky to its full poten­tial will take 10 to 20 thou­sand hours of pro­gram­ming.

So every extra pledge, no mat­ter how small (or big!) takes us a step clos­er to that goal. If you’ve appre­ci­at­ed my blog over the last six years and my research on finan­cial insta­bil­i­ty over the last 20 years, please show that appre­ci­a­tion now via a pledge for Min­sky.

About Steve Keen

I am Professor of Economics and Head of Economics, History and Politics at Kingston University London, and a long time critic of conventional economic thought. As well as attacking mainstream thought in Debunking Economics, I am also developing an alternative dynamic approach to economic modelling. The key issue I am tackling here is the prospect for a debt-deflation on the back of the enormous private debts accumulated globally, and our very low rate of inflation.
