The year is 2021, and America's southern border has become a river of humanity-1.7 million encounters, nearly four times the previous year. In Baltimore, six entire schools report zero students passing state exams. Afghanistan collapses in chaos, leaving Americans stranded and allies abandoned. A drone strike meant to prevent terrorism kills seven children instead. These aren't isolated failures-they're symptoms of a system that has forgotten how to function. What happens when the world's most powerful nation loses its ability to solve basic problems? When bureaucracies designed to serve citizens become labyrinths of incompetence? When the very institutions meant to protect freedom begin dismantling it? We're living through that experiment right now, and the results are alarming. Big Government Socialism isn't some distant European ideal-it's the belief that massive bureaucracies and government control can engineer a better future, despite consistent evidence to the contrary. This ideology has captured America's elite institutions while delivering catastrophic results on the ground.
