Socialism is not sustainable.
Hybrid Social / Capitalism? Dunno, but it looks like we might find out.
Short version is, someone has to pay for things. Something has to inspire people to create wealth and jobs.
Government can't create wealth by creating guvmint jobs because SOMEBODY has to generate wealth in order to pay for guvmint jobs and the associated salaries. Today 60% of Americans pay for the other 40% or more accurately 60% of Americans pay money into the system, 40% don't and out guvmint SPENDS 40% more than it takes in by borrowing from others.
Bottom line - Is THAT sustainable?
