🚨 Can we visualise 140yrs of banking crises on an animated world map? Yes! Should we have invested quite so much time doing so? 🤫 www.ft.com/content/bcc9...
A world map showing a snapshot of banking crises and recapitalisations paused at 1931. Green circles signify banking crises, blue circles private sector recapitalisations, red circle government recapitalisations. Lots of circles.

Creating 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.

Fascism is National Socialism. It upsets both the extreme Right and the extreme Left when you say this.

Very 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...

CDS'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.

Or maybe because the GOP's bisiness friendliness is just rhetoric - a term of art for policies favoring special interests at the expense of all other interests, including broad-based growth.

Yes, 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...

Also, vastly richer economies have far more political headroom for redistribution than anything we see today.

Brian Keyser @bkeyser.bsky.social · 03/04/2026
Those 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.

Come 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.

They may be whiners, but you would whine too if someone singled you out to take 5% of your wealth. Who's to say it's not another 5% next year too. Need revenue? - then tax everyone - guess who ends up paying the most...
