Before the pandemic, after Bernie was crushed for a second time by the oligarchs, I often wondered where the oligarchs would run away to once the people have had enough. Some thoughts were China, Switzerland, Israel, New Zealand, or Mars. Post pandemic all of these places seem to have issues that prevent them from being a one stop destination for all of the worlds wealth hoarders. There is still the theory that the US becomes more like Brazil: Large amounts of poverty with secure enclaves of the extremely rich. I know this is a stretch but we are already seeing shadows of it in the pop culture with the popularity of films like the purge.

Zeihan does talk about the US going through a political reshuffling right now that will take 10-20 years. I guess on that timeframe we will find out what happens.
