Its called the hegemon facing off a rising superpower. History is full of such cases and their outcomes
Where is America the hegemon? Not economically, and defintely not industrially. What about in resources? Not really that either. You can make a fair argument about military, but the fact is, China has never invested in military much, and nukes render conventional total victory impossible against the most relevant actors.

America is yet to become a hegemon. They might want to, but if they can't even be largest economy, that is just a faraway dream.

What you're seeing is an arrogant expanding power (America) thinking it can take on the world and win.

The Wolfowitz Doctrine does not even allow for a regional power to emerge such that it challenges the US in any region.
And Hitler's "new order" dictated a new balance of power over all of Eurasia.

All delusion without the hard power to back it up.

Current America is in recession despite China being greatly distracted from dealing with them due to covid, is losing a proxy war against China's proxy without China even needing to invest much in that, and can't muster the military balls to conquer a tiny Chinese island half the size of the Donbass, despite having verbally threatened to do so for decades.

The dream of an American new world order has never been so far away as in 2023.

You won't get paid $15-20 an hour as an illegal in the US. Try being enslaved in a factory farm for $3 an hour with a confiscated passport at gunpoint.
That is when you get yourself involved with being human traffic on a boat or borrow money from the triads. Hence people are DIY and trying to sneak over via mexico by airplane on their own. People hiring illegals are paying closer to minimum wage than not.

I hope Black Rock executives have taken the lessons to heart and have shared their bonuses with their grunts employees in the spirit of common prosperity. Technically A Christmas Carol teaches the same lessons. Does this mean that Xi is secretly the Ghost of Christmas Future? No wonder MSM and Western politicians are so scared of him.

if illegals are not in the US legally, and if the employer knew, they'd either not hire them, or not pay them minimum wage. if they had to be paid minimum wage it would be irrational to hire an illegal when a legal resident or citizen is paid the same.

Mexicans also "DIY" and "sneak over the border". Yet they still get enslaved. There;s more Mexicans in the US, they speak a European language, and more people in the US speak Spanish than Chinese, but they still get enslaved regardless, why?
