“I haven’t seen the HBO series ‘The Gilded Age,’ but I do know that the finale of Season 3 has stirred up the statists, big time. The question they are asking in their op-eds and commentaries is, ‘Do we really want to go back to the Gilded Age?’ What they are referring to is the period in U.S. history from around 1870 to about 1910, which just happens to be my favorite time in American history. In fact, if I could choose any period of time in U.S. history in which to live, I’d choose the Gilded Age.” (08/11/25)
