    It is in many places, just not everywhere. Appalachia, Puerto Rico, lots of small towns, lots of urban neighborhoods. There was some guy saying, he say his country collapse, and it didn't happen all at once. i think something about, one day there'd be a bombing, and the next day you'd go to the disco, and it just happened a little at a time so there was no big dramatic moment.

        The numbing litany of bad news. The ever rising outrages. People suffering, dying, and protesting all around you, while you think about dinner.

        It's only in hindsight that I realize just how well Children Of Men nailed this.

      As the saying goes: collapse isn't an event, it's a process.
