    The US doesn't have the capability to do shit like that anymore. Rate of profit is way too anemic.

      i disagree, U.S. is plenty capable, third most populous country, vast resources, its political system needs a purge lenin-crush-capitalism. i would love to see actual competition between China, Russia and the U.S. it would be the best for the Global South but instead we have the U.S. and the west strangling the Global south through its institutions like the IMF.

      USSR helped Global South countries tremendously, something which worried the US and forced it to provide economic aid to its own puppets.

        The US is its political system, the population and resources are just incidentally here also.
