The US has always been a plutocracy with democratic trimmings. Exactly like ancient Rome. The difference now is that the plutocrats are high on their own supply. There used to be an understanding that if they didn't give something back they'd end up hanging from a lamp post. Now they've decided the little people and their silly little planet are disposable, and AI, magic robots, and a cult of narcissism will replace them. Absolutely lunacy, with consequences as expected.
