Brian Keyser @bkeyser.bsky.social · 30/07/2026Creating a military training program that prepares vets to pass CDL exam on day one of their transition to the private sector might be a good idea. But allowing them, as Trump proposes, to skip the test altogether is just another dangerous degradation of expertise. These guys are truly idiots. 030

Reposted by Brian KeyserMichael Pettis @michaelpettis.bsky.social · 20/04/2026Very sorry to hear about this. Shortly after I finished reading his brilliant three-volume biography of Keynes, perhaps 15 years ago, I met him at a conference in Brazil. We became friends after that and met several times, mostly in London but also in Beijing. www.thetimes.com/uk/obituarie...thetimes.comLord Skidelsky obituary: leading historian of KeynesHistorian and foremost authority on the British economist John Maynard Keynes who was founding chairman of the Social Market Foundation, dies aged 86 2268
Brian Keyser @bkeyser.bsky.social · 17/04/2026CDS's did not blow up the global economy - the underlying crappy structured products did. Same here - it will be the shitty private credit that blows up - not the CDS's insuring the risk. 000

Brian Keyser @bkeyser.bsky.social · 03/04/2026Yes, but the payoff is measured in multiples when all other historic productivity miracles are measured in ppts or bps. All growth is transition and disruption. I am too old to remember Schumpeter's exact words, but he would be all over this... 001
Brian Keyser @bkeyser.bsky.social · 03/04/2026Also, vastly richer economies have far more political headroom for redistribution than anything we see today. 000
Brian Keyser @bkeyser.bsky.social · 03/04/2026Those are micro examples. The macro is that exploding productivity means a richer economy that can then do things that poor society cannot. More teachers, smaller classes, more personal attention in medical care, cheaper legal advice, etc, etc. In business cycle time, Say's law always operates. 110
Brian Keyser @bkeyser.bsky.social · 03/04/2026Come on Ben, taking AI seriously doe not necessarily mean job losses. New jobs always replace old jobs as productivity surges. Buggy whips, secretaries and all that. That non-economists are worried about aggregate job losses is just reveals that they are out of their expertise lane. 120
