Is Suzanne Collins’ THE HUNGER GAMES series an accurate prediction of the future of human society?

    I can’t remember the last time that I read a book based in the far future where society was better off. There always seems to be the wealthy singular governance which preys upon the have-nots. In Suzanne Collins’ THE HUNGER-GAMES series, the world’s working class is dominated by the wealthy ruling class. Granted this is simply a well thought out plot in a novel and not a declaration of the possible future that the world is heading to, I think that it is interesting that many authors see the future with little optimism. Although the ruler is titled as a president, the futuristic setting of THE HUNGER GAMES is similar to that of a time of kings and queens, which ruled their kingdoms with absolute control. Could our future generations see a great limiting of their rights which have been fought over for more than 2000 years?
Is there an alternative or is human nature so destructive that it is inevitable that governments will fall and society will crumble?
