America collapses tomorrow. You're forced to move elsewhere. What country do you pick? (1 Viewer)

I'm going with Australia.  Seems like if the world went to hell in a hand basket, that would be about the last continent to get dragged in to everything.  

 
I really liked Austria- those small little towns are amazing. However, it isn't in the best geo-political positon and it sounds like they have plenty of issues with Nationalism as well. 

 
Man,  I was going to say Canada, but this really does sound better. 
If movies have taught me anything it is that among the tribes and hordes will be plenty of smoking hot women in fetish wear looking for a wandering stranger to savagely shtoink.

I'd live off the land in Canada.  I'd rather not be around that many people.  I would live in a cabin on a lake and hunt and fish.

 
Well, yeah if we have to factor in travel logistics after the collapse of society, Canada and Mexico are just about your only shot (or a raft TO Cuba; Oh, the irony!)

Assuming I will be able to get to the country of my choosing, I'm liking the Australia and New Zealand answers.

 
I thought of that instead of Canada but not sure how I'm getting there.
I assumed the 'collapse' represented a huge earthquake, so I'm riding the tsunami wave to New Zealand.  I'll be starting at about 9,000 feet above sea level, in Colorado, and figure most people beneath 6,000 feet in elevation will drown.  Based on my calculations, including wind resistance, water temperature, and static cling, the wave should settle near the south island of NZ, somewhere near Dunedin.

 
I've always been a fan of survival shows and movies.  I think it's important to know what you're doing and have some kind of plan.  I'm not talking like doomsday prep level but at least an idea of what to do.  I've had daydreams about what I would do if things went crazy and one of the first things I would do is go to my local sporting goods store and stock up on guns, ammo and supplies.  After that I'm getting as far away from people as possible and living in the wild.  People are very dangerous in chaotic circumstances.

 
What country actually wants the ugly American.  None, would be my guess.  But I expect 3 years in immigration and go wherever they take me.  Why would people treat us better than we treat them?  

 
Australia, my wife has family there and already wants to move there. I could get into rugby and by and large they love Americans over there.

I am thinking Hawaii (if it’s far away enough), England, Australia, then any island where English is spoken...

Canada.  I have rights of citizenship (mother grew up there, she now also has American citizenship).

Would seriously consider Israel (also have rights of citizenship - thank Jew very much), especially with a good life/career opportunity near Tel Aviv.  In fact, that sounds like a pretty good plan right now.
