Have any of you thought about this for more than 5 seconds?

You aren't going to wake up one day and look out your window to see a barren post apocalyptic hell-scape with roving gangs of Mad Max style criminals.

If America collapses, it will be a long, slow decline over years and decades. It won't suddenly go to hell with people trading seeds as currency. Britain, France, Spain, those were all super powers at one time and they simply faded into being regular countries. They aren't wastelands filled with gun toting criminals, in fact, many people argue that those countries are better than America.

I guess all I would ask is for people to show me an example of a first world country that declined into this Mad Max style scenario everyone seems to think is coming.
