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

This episode explores Imagine: A Socialist USA by Frances Goldin as a systems-level analysis of how economic design choices shape behavior, belief, and institutional outcomes.

By focusing on incentive architecture rather than moral identity framing, the episode shows why profit-driven systems persist — and how democratic socialist proposals attempt to redesign provisioning for healthcare, education, and ecological stability.
