Let's say America falls, what will the government do with all that epic military hardware? Seriously, do you think they will just bow down and wait for the decapitation?

Thats money it means nothing, USA could go to war tomorrow and force them to use its new currency.
War is about control and if you are the victor you just take you dont owe them nothing.

Your standard of life drops to a third world country, your reserve currency status is removed so food jumps 100% due to inflation and keeps rising and rising, You are no better off than India's population.
Or you use your military might to flatten any country that tries to remove your reserve currency status.
