Zimbabwe has one advantage: it can't collapse any further.

The U.S., whose 2nd and 3rd fractional reserve banking systems a.k.a. the stock and property markets, are not going to re-inflate the economy this time. That means real interest rates should increase. This will make it hard for the real economy to function and so cause the expansion to stagnate.
