15. If it wasn't our empire, it would be another empire |

Then again, in our current world, there really is no here or there. The boards of corporations are white, black, asian, male, female, etc. The only reason "representation" in governments are still behind corporations in that regard is governments have borders. There is no America, or China, or India. It's all the same system. Some Americans may think we rule the world, but we don't. There is no we, or them. We're all interchangeable cogs, even the people running things...if anyone is running things.
It doesn't really matter if you agree or disagree with imperialism. Imperialism is the only way *this* world can work. America wouldn't exist without imperialism in the first place. It's sort of built in.
