The US and the US $ won't pass away like an old man. See how the future as history reads. First it stalls. Lets say, for need of having a fixed date that marks that milestone that was August 1972.

Then it is slowly returns to its 'natural' size. The period starting with the early 70's up to the late 90s it is the "sputtering phase", still trying to go as it had raced before. Immigration still brings new blood and population doesn't shrink. People still sees in the present body what it once was.

In the next two decades, it downs in the populace that it has stagnated and no artificial trick will make it look like keeping its pace. The signs of decadence, at this stage, are too visible to disguise.

In the long term it will go back to insignificance had been turned into another kind of entity. Like Rome, Ottoman and the British Empire, which today don't bear any resemblance to the entity they once were. By then no one even bother discuss it.
