Late Stage Anglo-American Empire

The US may want all this (and more, Project for a New American Century and all that), but the question is whether they can materially pull it off. When you realize they've spent the last 50 years outsourcing all production, increasingly putting finance capital in charge, you can really see the scale of the problem, quantitatively and qualitatively.

Does that mean it's impossible? Or that the evil empire will go down without a fight? Of course not. But socialism is proving that it is more productive than capitalism, while capitalism continues to produce its own grave diggers.
