How do you benefit from faster decline? If shops are empty or looted and everyone becomes homeless. You would only benefit if you are an elite already or get rations in the army maybe while you defend the property of the people left in power. The rest will starve if they cant hunt or grow their own food. And you will have to protect that too from thiefs.
It's all speculative in terms of how the decline will accelerate. I for one actually can't wait until I can start killing people without the government getting involved because so many people are dying they can't keep up. I can't wait for that.

An accelerated decline is just the country being a shitty place to live for the rest of your life. It isn't going to become Mad Max out there.
