We are not a classic empire, because empires at least make economic sense, even if they are moral poseurs and economic predators.

We have managed to compound the worst elements of imperial obligations and intermeddling, together with the role of guilt ridden global philanthropist and utopian scold.

It will not last, because our economy will break under the weight of parasites, both foreign and domestic.
