I sure hope so...
Thing is, though, no empire/country/nation in the world has actually thrived or survived very long with this going on, particularly the bad leadership part.
The kind of issues going on in the world, and America, alone, are pretty big, the kinds that affect all kinds of really negative change. Mixing-in incompetent or corrupted leaders/gov't is actually a perfect recipe for disaster. This is exactly what has brought many civilizations/countries to their end, re-defined their borders countless times, etc...
I cannot say for sure what will or what happen, but to just assume or blindly believe things absolutely will be ok, is in my opinion, quite foolish. The history books have quite a few examples of what happens when a nation gets to this state, it falls or splits. Usually, this is a pretty violent affair, costing the lives of not only government officials high and low, but also innocents. There's also a tendency to leave-behind some nasty scars that yield to at least one more nasty conflict later on.
I'm not saying what will happen, but I'm saying, looking at it from a logical, and I daresay, statistical standpoint, America is in a very poor shape, and slowly getting nowhere. Maybe not next year, but if things keep-up the way they are, it's more and more likely the whole country will collapse. It's clear there's already some major division between different factions/parties/whatever, here. The first question that comes to mind is not "will someone finally get really, really, really mad and start a riot/war?" it is, "When will it happen, who will be involved, and what price will be paid?"
I had more stuff to say, but honestly, I don't feel like saying it.
Whatever happens in the end, only time will tell...
