Crisis in Perception · Jun 6, 2026 · 50m

Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.

This episode explores Abundance by Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson as a systems-level analysis of state capacity, production failure, and artificial scarcity.

The discussion examines:

· incentive structures

· institutional persistence

· feedback loops

· permitting and procurement systems

· housing, energy, medicine, and infrastructure

· the gap between public goals and physical execution
