As GB says, it would not be balkanization. It would be total collapse of everything. Literally anarchy, everything would be independent, small villages would raid other villages. The only things which will be close to organized will be big cities like New York, Chicago or Dallas. Los Angeles and San Francisco might form something in the start but, as Edge said, won't be able to sustain themselves and will fall apart.

It hinges on foreign intervention really. Europe and Canada wouldn't just sit back and do nothing. Theyd try to establish order. Which they might succeed in.
