No, not the US as a whole, but perhaps the end of the insane and without reasonable measures Capitalism that it has spawned. This is the theorized late-stage capitalism, but it was brought to this level by a broken and out of control system, whereas the academic model of capitalism would have had certain mechanisms of balance to prevent exactly where we are. The system is too imbalances to work with all these corporations, conglomerates, and billionaires hold a disproportionate amount of the wealth, and keeping it from circulation. It just can't work this way, so some drastic shift to reduce or remove that will need to change.
