. The most that could happen, barring total dissolution of the country, would be an arrangement like France, where there are urban islands of elitists surrounded by a ring of barbarians, and the rest a rural hinterland. Sort of works, but not well.

In the US, only a mass abandonment of national identity could suffice to dissipate the current passions. “globalists” with no allegiance to anyone but themselves, such as we are seeing with major corporations and their mandarins, would ally with foreign hegemons of convenience, mostly Chinese, by present context.

The remainder of us, “Americans,” would be shadows of former selves, nominally a country but held in economic bondage by the global financial, cultural and governmental entities.

I think you have it exactly backwards. We are currently, right now, "held in economic bondageby the global financial, cultural and governmental entities."

Without Washington DC imposing these conditions, they would not exist. We would be energy independent and food independent. What would the global elites be able to do to us other than starting a war against us?
