By theory is that by 2030, baring some major world events, the US will be 100% socialist. Great decline in the global economy will follow and the worlds socialist governments will fail with them. Fascist, communist, and other radicals will start causing the usual trouble. Sometime between 2050 and 2070 there will be a mini-revolution in the US kicking the socialists out.

Short answer, they can only be forced at gunpoint. Right now cutting pork gets you nothing, while bringing pork to your district gets you re-elected.
