I don't think we can call the current system something different until the ideology of the middle class changes. (I think in society, the power of upper class over middle class is maintained by ideology, while power over lower class is maintained by force). There is still by and large belief in meritocracy and American dream. Contrast that with feudalism, people in the middle class had the ideology of the divine, unchanged order. So I think the future is still open because it will crucially depend on what ideology will be taken by middle classes. They might as well adopt a social democratic ideology again, as the did in the reaction to late 19th century capitalism in the Europe and U.S.
