    It is. lol. What do you think “family watches as firefighters let their house burn down because they didn’t pay up-front” is? Collapse isn’t some instant thing where one day everything hunky dory and the next day it’s mad max cannibalism. The countries been in a state of collapse for a couple decades. It’s just we are getting into the late game now.

      True, but despite this internal collapse, the country is still powerful internationally. I cant wait for that dominance to end.
