Nice try, but you forget the dumbed-down education most Americans have received and how so many have become de facto wards of the state. This will actually work against the Dems when the economy tanks in a heretofore unprecedented fashion, proving their inability to perform the basic duties of the Nanny State. The unwashed will scream like babies whose bottles have been ripped from their lips.

The Dems cannot provide from a bare cupboard. Even the brainless Dem electorate will start to understand the Dem's failure when socialist handouts won't be enough to buy a Happy Meal.

However, when the change comes, look out! The conflicts in the streets won't be between the Left and Right. It will be between the Self-Sufficients and the Dependents. When the government can't support the Dependents, they will decide that they have the right to take what they need from those who have prepared for the coming disaster. There could be a breakdown of societal norms on every level. Make sure your guns are locked and loaded.
