Perhaps your reading comprehension or memory retention might be fading at your advanced age, but please do be reminded that 2015.75 is the start of the global contagion. You'll probably have your regular services levels through 2017 and we would look at the 2018 to 2020 timeframe for some serious civil unrest, war, and worsening expropriation.

As for Madmax, it was always made clear to you that this was a worst case option and if so it would be more likely in the post-2020 time frame. If Asia bottoms 2020 as expected and the Asia doesn't move in lock step on the expropriation of expats, then perhaps a release value frontier of that sort (or maybe crypto and a rising Knowledge Age) could avert the total devolution of the West. My bet is we won't go all the way to Madmax in most locales. Odds are much greater for a muddle through with some hotspots in the world 2016 - 2024. In order words, your location may determine how bad it is. For those fleeing ISIS or some in Ukraine, they already experienced the start of Madmax.
