Your reply is pretty funny, considering the US has been forcing Americanization onto so many other countries through wars, inciting coups, and training terrorists to do their dirty deeds (this had backfired in the middle-east). Please get some education in history and you'll know who has been the aggressor here.
I agreed that it can't be contrasted with China. See http://www.worldfuturefund.org/Reports/Imperialism/usmurder..... If only US can focus on improving the welfare of its people, improving its infrastructures, funding new industries, subsidize education and health, instead of spending so much on futile wars overseas, it would not be in the situation it is in now. Sorry for going off-topic.
