Capitalism is dead in this country. Crony corporatism has replaced it.

I'm not going to take up for the Bernie Bros and the suicide stuff is likely due to other factors. But, I do think there is kernel of truth to OP in the sense that a heavy debt-based infinite growth based money system seems doomed to collapse at some point. How long can interest rates stay low, the Fed keep printing, and the people/government keep taking on debt? "Growth for the sake of growth is the ideology of the cancer cell." I don't know what the alternative is, though, other than what some of the Austrian theorists espouse.
