15. Rome
Detroit is merely the first American city to exhibit modern day ruins. With our stupendously gigantic military expenditures financed by the Chinese at the expense of our domestic industries (the old guns vs. butter) we our bankrupting ourselves.

Over the coming decade we will see many, many more modern day ruins. All empires come to an end. America's time has come because we have run out of money and the plutocracy has turned into a classic third world kleptocracy.
