But as the government grows into an increasingly authoritarian and centralized federal Leviathan, many parents continue to tolerate, if not enthusiastically champion, grievous public policies that threaten their children and successive generations with a grim future at the hands of a brazenly expanding and imploding entitlement state poised to burden them with massive debt, mediocre education, waves of immigration, and a deteriorating national defense. Zusammenfassung #1 New York Times bestselling author and radio host Mark R. Levin delivers a "bracing meditation” ( National Review ) on the ways our government has failed the next generation.
