In a dystopian setting, the novel's plot depends on how quickly the autocrats/wealthy rulers start looking for boogie men elsewhere in the world to distract their serfs from hardships, should it come to that (not exactly a first in history, this). In turn, depends on a combination of how long it takes to soak up America's public wealth for themselves & whether or not they decide to incite witch hunts within the populace for said distraction, first, particularly given US 2nd Amendment & all the residual bigotry & paranoia boiling under the surface that deep-seated pride-shame dynamics continue to aggravate. Key is to control the chaos & either keep the volunteer military out of it, or pull off a convincing flag to get them all on board (3rd option is to get them embroiled elsewhere, perhaps - it's a substantial force). Something like a 9/11 event could lend itself to the 3rd, all-in-one plan, in this vein. There's always the chance they'll keep up the clown show & the American public contents itself with status-quo low-quality consumerism & endless distraction, despite potentially declining conditions. Show goes on, business as usual stuff, so long as most can afford subsistence & remain convinced nothing more is worthwhile.
