Well, that's what does happen. Eventually. But in Y: the Last Man, at least, all men die instantaneously. So on top of losing a good portion of the experienced workforce, all women everywhere also out of nowhere lose their fathers, brothers, sons, friends, and so on. So it takes a while for people to come out of their shock, and in the meantime, things like powerplants go down,and planes crash, not to mention the 3 billion bodies lying in the streets for however long it takes for people to reorganize and deal with it. A lot of the comic actually does deal with how different groups of women and different governments get back to functioning and moving on. But when half of the world dies all of a sudden? yeah, there's gonna be chaos and things falling apart for a while.

Also, at the start it wasn't completely apparent that it was only men dying. All the surviving women first had to wonder if the plague was going to hit them too or not.

But yeah, the world of women pulls together eventually. It's a realistic touch that grief has as much of an impact (like what's shown in Australia) as it does.
