THE AMERICAN TEST

These are the constitutional provisions and founding structures each proposal must survive. A policy is labeled unconstitutional only when controlling law supports that conclusion; unresolved threats and tensions remain plainly identified.

AUTHORITY DEPENDS ON THE ENACTED MECHANISM

LIMITED, ENUMERATED FEDERAL POWER

Article I and Tenth Amendment

Test the claimed federal power, the Necessary and Proper connection, and powers reserved to the states or the people.

?NO CONSOLIDATED TOTAL

WHAT THE REGIME DIDSummary executions after revolutionary trials, political imprisonment, and systematic repression of dissent

ECONOMIC CONSEQUENCENationalization, central planning, restrictions on private enterprise, and political control over employment and information produced a state-dominated economy with chronic shortages and limited individual economic choice.

WHAT THE NUMBER COVERSAmnesty International documents hundreds of summary executions following Castro's 1959 takeover while noting the absence of a reliable consolidated total for all deaths attributable to the regime.

THE VERDICT STANDARD

Follow the mechanism. Name the ideology. Test it against the Constitution. Show the historical result. No party label, campaign language, or modern rebranding overrides that record.
