Maybe like the UK but the problem with the US is that the US is a violent country. Lower standard of living is likely to cause violence. UK literally just lost all the colonial wealth but came together to build itself again.
In many ways, the US is a spiral descent culture while the UK lost is all and ascended again but to lower levels.
