What supports that idea?
Baby Diego is killed outside of a bar in Buenos Aires. Why is a celebrity still in Argentina, if there's not a functioning society there? Hell, at least there's a bar.
That's not to say that things aren't bad. We see shots of soldiers marching in Moscow, protest and car burning in Washington, fires in Kuala Lumpur and Brussels, deaths on the street of Tokyo with a headline tag that reads "The World Has Collapsed" ... not the 'rest' of the world has collapsed.
With what we see in the U.K. during the course of the film, I think it would be hard to support that things are much rosier there than any place else.
To my view, it's the worldwide economic collapse that has caused the usual have-have not situation to now become dire indeed, with the have nots taking it on the chin. Look around the dude at his job and you see rows of desks not only not used but wrapped in plastic. On the way to work, the dude walks by a sign saying 'jobs for the Brits.' With the population shrinking, it's only going to get worse.
