De
with a population that small what is to keep the US from being overrun by others from other countries?

Nothing as I can tell mainly because you don't have enough people remaining that would be in our Military to be able to defend the country or be able to have the manpower to project deterrence..

Billy Gates would be happy as he is the number one person in favor of reducing population. Notice he does not lead by example... And despite his egomania nobody gives a rats arse what he thinks...

Re: “What if for five years we...”
Whenever radical change is imposed quickly, it is a shock to the system. In the case you've described, it would be akin to a massive, impregnable bubble being placed around the United States (with tubes extending to Hawaii, Alaska and the various territories.) The shock would be horrendous... a bloodbath... as we struggled to deal with food production and distribution at the expense of medicines, disaster assistance, equipment repair, power production, crime prevention. Everything for which there is a foreign dependency would shut down. People would die by the tens of millions. In a year, perhaps things would begin to improve, but I wouldn't be surprised if the population was sliced in half. Disease would be rampant. And so would barbarism.

Like it or not, we are heavily dependent on the rest of the world right now. What we need is a managed separation, not a 'sink or swim' solution.

Your question, though, is what the country would look like in five years. My guess is that we would be a nation on the improve, with a population of 50 to 100 million.
