s became the core Q in the year my dad and The Economist spent with Von Neumann in UNYPrinceton 1951. Von Neumann asked can networks (Architecture Intel) multiply value in use (eg above zero sum games play) unlike consuming up things or addicting people warring over iron and carbon, or printing paper money to the whim of a politician instead of the surety of a gold standard.
In 1985 I co-authored this 2025 report - could we humans prertain ourselves to design web 1 (eg 2000s web2 (2010s) web3 (2020s) to be smart unlike ever dumb rabbit hole tele ages had compounded from world war 2 in 1945 and in the much slower rehearsals of coms around the world that were mediated out of switzerland since 1865 (ITU)
NEUMANN HAD VERY CLEAR TRANSFORMATION LIST
In addition to the geopolitical and diversity reconcilitaions that multilaterals linked by UN NY needed to purpose- could intel mathematicians and energy scientists help improve how people's learning time is spent so that wherever GPS is of next girl is born she has fair chance to thrive
And in everyone's search for better ways to spend/commune action learning time so could public events move on from left/right arguments ( not that 2 wrongs can mediate a solution); we need public servants who have AI engineering as we flew through decades where Von Neumann suggested the number 1 economics scoop - what goods will peoples unite wherever they have first access to at aleast 100 times more decade?. Both economics and AI are maths designed. I know far more immoral economist than AI designers, but the point is its the human who steps into immorality or blinding media stupidity that destroys worldwide hi-trust connectivity for other humans. Here's a extract pof my dad's last article written end of 2008 had millennials been subprimed to decade of under investment
How to Avert A Great Depression Through the Hungry 2010s?
Answer, By Making All Banking Very Much Cheaper
This was Norman Macrae's last article written in December 2008
If banks in rich democracies had been truly competitive
institutions, at least one of them somewhere would have seized
the main opportunity created by the computer. This main
opportunity was to make all deposit-banking vastly cheaper than
ever before. By this cheapening it should make such banking
hugely more profitable. Then further competition would search
for the cheapest ways to guide all the world's saving into the
most profitable (or otherwise most desirable) forms of capital
investment, thus enriching all mankind.
Instead, during 2008 the total losses of banks in rich democracies
- in North America, West Europe and Japan - soared into trillions
of dollars. Fearful for their solvency, these banks virtually stopped
lending. The issuance of corporate bonds, commercial paper, and
many other financial products largely ceased. Hedge and
insurance firms also crashed. Mankind is thus threatened in the
2010s with its longest great depression since the hungry 1930s.
Why? The strange answer seems to be that other happy
consequences of modern technology promised to make this
cheapening even faster. Call centres in Bangalore vastly undercut
the middle class salaries of Midland bank clerk who until the
1950s expensively answered clients' questions in their branches
in the City of London. Cheap mobile phones kept village ladies in
once miserable Bangladesh as fully in touch with market prices as
is the chief research officer of the First National Bank of
Somewhere in California. His weekly salary is still 1000 times
greater than the previous annual earnings of that village lady. The
cost-effective way of running the old Midland or First National
then seemed to be to cut its total salary cost by something like
99%. This did not please Western welfare governments, or the
decent chief executives of the old Midland or First National bank.
Awaiting the sensation of a short sharp shock
From a cheap and chippy chopper on a big black block
- WS Gilbert in The Mikado - why it is uncomfortable to work in an

industry which needs 99% redundancies.
Western welfare governments have long preferred to run their
banks in high cost cartels, and even invented reasons why this
seems to be moral. Their deposit-banks have usually kept in cash
only 10% of the total amount deposited with them. If 11% of
depositors suddenly feared that their banks might go bust, this
could accelerate a run that would send them bust indeed.
Governments therefore thought that depositors would be less
fearful if they were assured that the banks were officially and
tightly regulated. Actually, this mainly meant that the banks had
to hire ever more expensive lawyers so as to escape any crippling
consequences from this regulation. The attached quote shows
that Samuel Pepys understood this fact of life in his Diaries of July
21, 1662.
I see it is impossible for the King to have things done so cheaply
as do other men
The decent bosses of the deposit banks felt that the best way of
avoiding sacking nine tenths of their staffs was by competing
with a very different sort of financing called merchant banking
whose earnings and bonuses were far more generous than those
given to their own staff. These merchant banks were of peculiarly
differing pedigree. In London, it was assumed that they could best
be run by families like Barings who had done the job for over 200
years. In the 1990s, Barings went totally bust because one of its
hired traders bet much of its money on a hunch that a bad
earthquake in Japan meant that the shares of Japanese banks and
insurance companies would become more profitable. In Zurich,
merchant banks felt it most moral to keep the accounts of their
depositors totally secret, especially if these accounts were being
used to defraud their own countries' tax authorities. In 2008 those
4
secretive banks were then defrauded. In Wall Street, Goldman
Sachs and Lehman Bros bid up their annual bonuses to millions of
dollars for each partner. In 2008 even Goldman Sachs made a loss
and Lehman Bros went bust.
A former chairman of the Federal Reserve argues that "fearful
investors clearly require a far larger capital cushion to lend
unsecured to any financial intermediary now". He therefore thinks
that taxpayers money should be ladled into them to make those
investors less fearful. This seems far more likely to make
depositors intermittently more terrified and cause any depression
into the 2010s to linger on and on.
In the 1930s, the chief economic adviser to the government of
Siam was called Prince Damrong. I try always to remember it
- quote from former director of International Monetary Fund.
One of the few big banks to make a profit in 2008 was the
Grameen Bank (which means Village Bank) in that once basketcase
country called Bangladesh.
