For this special episode of Superstructure,  cohosts Will Beaman (@agoingaccount) and Andrés Bernal (@andresintheory) are joined by Jonathan Wilson (@DeficitOwl24601) to discuss his new white paper, "Proposal for a Local Currency Issued by the City of Austin," which proposes a complementary currency for the city of Austin called Austin Credits.

Jonathan's proposal contributes to a developing conversation in the Austin City Council, which was tasked by recent legislation with exploring possibilities for new public banking and payments structures by a resolution. The conversation delves into the proposal's legal design and implementation strategy, while also contextualizing its political meaning and stakes for progressive politics.
