I’ll have to reread it but this conclusion:

“As a result, I don’t think the coalition is likely to go away.”

Makes me particularly happy. There are a few things I dont like about the us and the west in general - one being an excessive reliance on corporations and a diminishing small business culture, one that risks damaging the very freedoms we enjoy - but otherwise I think we are pretty much doing the right thing. A bit more alignment wouldnt hurt either. The benefits pax americana have brought are simply incredibly beneficial to the free world - without the us there wouldnt be much free world to talk about anyway.

I think it’s in the interest of all free countries to protect america in return as that project is by far the greatest achievement so far in terms of nation building. More unity means we will also be able to start looking beyond our planet as that will require the force that only we as one can provide.
