US of A has already created enemies. See 9/11 for an example of "nobody is going to attack us" being false. Could the nation slowly step back and generation-by-generation shed their national reputation such that they have no enemies? Maybe. But that would take a while (generations) without any guarantee and is kind of the opposite of what has happened recently. |

This is basically what the UK did after WWII. We’d have to be honest that a fall in relative living standards would probably accompany such a move. (Counterpoint: the Nordic countries.)
