Tantalizing title
Advertised in another Gernsback publication:
I can't find any text from 'Technocracy Review'. It's not in the American Radio History website, and Google mentions it but doesn't find any actual texts. Apparently it didn't last long.
David Lasser was probably the key player. He was one of Gernsback's main partners and editors in the science and radio magazines, and was a solid Socialist and union activist who finally got disgusted with CPUSA.
Foster and Browder were CPUSA, which means FBI. Browder's grandson is still playing on Deepstate's team.
From the blurb:
Should we have more machines or less? is the price system played out? Should we have
electric dollars or gold? Do we need a New Deal or a revolution?
This was Feb 1933, just before FDR started work. Some of the questions were answered or solved by FDR. He restarted the price system by breaking the bankers, and he switched gold from a part-time currency to a full-time ground point, which is gold's best function.
The reference to 'electric dollars versus gold' is still an open question. In 1933, computers (IBM punch card sorters with arithmetic ability) were already doing much of the calculating for major companies and government, but the stored value was purely on paper. Banking didn't switch to full digital representation of value until the '70s. Digital representation still fails more often than paper, and Bitcoin, the latest 'electric dollar', is just a fraud.
