Ultimately, ordinary Americans like you and I are also among the beneficiaries of the hitherto prevailing American global order! So we better be aware of some 'unintended consequences'.
Neoliberalism!
It is as much an enemy of Americans as the rest of the world. It kills local economy for it's extraction value and not as a staple of human life and culture. Things are for consumption... but here the consumption and the consumer is securitized!
Take the most obvious examples of today's day and age... Walmart and Uber. By having Walmarts as focal points of all consumption... every local store shutters. People who were able to make a livelihood and contribute within their local economy now feed wall street for their consumption and jobs they get in return are minimum wage for maximum extraction for the sharks. Uber the other one... who now controls both the rider and driver... can single handedly not only pick and choose what they want to charge the rider and pay the driver but control access!!! Something that had a whole segment of local economy... fleet management, local insurer, dispatch, mechanics, drivers, lease of local real estate and money that circulated in local economy now is siphoned off to San Francisco and tech bros! Where regular day to day work is further off shored to Phillipines or India... and local sweatshop labor walks on pins and needles... no one is better off because of it! Everyone suffers!
All economy is local and once these bandits get their paper and cloud capital smashed the local economy will find its feet... it has too... though painful it may be...
This is important before everyone walks into a dystopia remotely access controlled by tech bros for maximum extraction and nothing else.
There are deeper currents in motion in these wars then meets the eye. Iran is taking on the oligarchy without even knowing what's at stake! However wall street knows exactly what they're doing.
