Everyone seems crazy about Severance. One of the first shows in a while to be a true “water cooler” show, it has a 96 percent rating from Rotten Tomatoes critics and 76 percent from audiences. It’s spawned an entire cottage industry of YouTube sleuths theorizing about every clue the show’s given to the show’s mystery. It’s even crossed political boundaries, with everyone from Eileen Jones at Jacobin and Ben Shapiro at the Daily Wire calling it “the best show on television”.

America’s central economic problem is preserving the nation’s capacity to sustain growth vigorous enough to counteract an impending fiscal crisis of escalating national debt. Part of the reason that growth has declined in the last decades is the stifling force of over-regulation.
