>Global digital panopticon surveillance state
That succeeds in preventing only a handful of terrorist attacks by particularly incompetent retards, and largely failing as an evidentiary tool in court.
>never-ending war
But never in one place.
>poison food
Food has always been able to poison you, it's called rot.
>mass obesity
>declining mental health
Same problem, and not dystopian because it is the byproduct of the individuals themselves. Nobody forces them to be weak.
>declining birth rate
Again, a choice.
>technocracy
This was, once upon a time, actually thought as the path to utopia. It also appears to be on the way out, because the technocrats turned out to be better at sounding smart than being smart.
>big pharma
Oh no, breakthrough life-saving treatments are expensive!
>kleptocratic government
Not in the slightest a new development. Government always takes shit, every government in existence spends its existence from inception fighting over how much shit to take and from whom.
>corruption
See above.
>$37 trillion in debt
The only actual problem you've highlighted. Made worse by the fact that, if the problem is even theoretically surmountable, which I personally doubt, there is no political will to do what's necessary, and even a good solid economic catastrophe won't fix it because the last time we got that we got the New Deal, which just put us on the path for where we are today. I fully concede this point, because all outcomes of this are bad and one of them is guaranteed to come to fruition.
>brain chips a blink away
Yeah, and AI is a blink away from Skynet. Just as soon as ole Chatty G figures out how to stop recommending me books that don't exist.
