Within 5 years. Congress won't be able to agree on raising the debt ceiling, do one of those government shutdowns again, but this time they never restart it. The shutdown status of limited federal agencies working and non-essential employees furloughed becomes the new normal. The roles the federal government filled gradually become taken over either by state governments or corporations.
