1 of 6 Josefina Andrés (@josefinaandres) sees herself as a woman who photographs women. The inspiration came first from the women in her own family: “My mom and my aunts have spent their lives taking care of and helping others while remaining kind and loving,” says the 32-year-old, who lives in Valencia, Spain. “They taught me how to focus on my goals and inspired me to do so from a patient and caring place.” ⠀ See more of Spanish photographer @josefinaandres’s story this week on @vogue. ⠀ // ⠀ Josefina Andrés (@josefinaandres) se ve a sí misma como una mujer que fotografía a otras mujeres.

macro-

This article is ostensibly about "Modern Monetary Theory"
It also inspires one to consider (re-consider) a range of macroeconomic keywords, themes, and questions...

Why can't elections be twice as frequent?  Ten times?  Why can't a plutarchy be good?  Why can't most people be entrepreneurs?  Why can't more services be guaranteed?   Taxation - who is still paying?  Interest rates - why are they going down? 

The relationships, dependencies, linkages,  between, say,  infrastructure and services, and liquidity and jobs, and public policy and the private sector,
are not very fixed,
while the shifting situations present a whole new picture of possibilities and problems; opportunities.
