That's a strangely specific. At the moment we are seeing decades happening in weeks. The empire has already deteriorated greatly, and if they get the war with China they're hoping for they're screwed. China is the factory of the world and is probably not stupid enough to keep giving stuff to an active enemy. 2008 was quite the shock for the US economy. Another crisis is inevitable at some point relatively soon, and you can't bail out the banks forever. This is all not to mention the great prospect of more epidemics/anti-biotic resistence and the growing effects of climate change. At this point it is really socialism or extinction and capitalism's dying no matter what.
