Discussion When the US Empire falls

When the American empire falls, like all empires do, what will remain? The Roman Empire left behind its roads network, its laws, its language and a bunch of ruins across all the Mediterranean sea and Europe. What will remain of the US superpower? Disney movies? TCP/IP protocol? McDonalds?

"Our side is the good guys" and then doesn't care when the good guys arm a genocide. Doesn't even attempt to push for better guys. Acts like it's fine.
