Lost Highway Times...Paths in Oblivion

Imperialism packaged better.

Conservatives admit, sometimes, that we put our nose into everyone else's business around the globe; but they say "This is a libertarian empire!" "It's not based on Aristocracy like the British Empire, and we're because America was a democracy before everyone else somehow that transfers by osmosis to us, making our colonial ventures really ventures in liberation". It's a Soulful Empire, in other words, just like the corporations used to be called Soulfull Corporations.
