It’s wild, Americans don’t even benefit from the empire. If global wealth was distributed equally most Americans would be wealthier than they are. The only Americans that benefit are the handful of unfathomably rich ghouls at the very top. Europe reaps the benefits of US empire more than Americans do

I remember reading this as well and it's insane. Most EU citizens would, obviously, be poorer than they are if that happened, and rightly so.
US citizens live in the imperial core, exist in a society that rests solely on genocide and a global network of exploitation, torture, and general horror on a planetary scale, and they don't even benefit from it. And the most amazing thing is, they don't even revolt. They might be the most pathetic of all in the :lmayo: world, while simultaneously being personally and deeply convinced they're the most rugged and hard to subdue people of the world.
Capitalists used to get this. The new deal was funded by empire and was done to stave off communist revolution. But still it was done. Now they can't even understand why they would do anything but rip the copper wire out of the walls of this country
Have you considered that if global wealth was distributed equally, that would be 1984 totalitarian Communism and it's exactly what George Orwell warned us about?
Only if the US compares themselves to counties with zero resources while ignoring how much the US spends on healthcare does it look "good"
For the amount of money and resources the US has gained, their healthcare is shit. They destroyed the global south, for this?

The US has worse health outcomes than a few countries that don't have reliable/constant electricity in their hospitals ffs
