Liquor Dealer- do you really think that there's no-one else who would take the US's role if she magically disappeared tomorrow?
I will play devil's advocate by saying that whoever felt like colonising a very large, resource-rich empty country with a stable climate might have an economic advantage of some kind over other nations.
Of course there would be chaos in the short term. That is undeniable. The status quo of the world would change. No doubt. But there WAS a world before America existed, and that world would survive without America. It would be very different, but it would still be there.
Oh, and the idea of Canada and Mexico fighting over the spoils is a classic. I have images of sombrero-clad armies facing off against Mounties.
