# I don't live there
I'm an Australian. And I can assure you that a US empire is preferable to an Islamic or Communist one.

# now thats a totally speculative point
and we will never be allowed to find out, and how could we? coz its the tendency of empires to impose themselves.
actually, what a great idea: how about we try these three options out for awhile: 10 years US/capitalist then 10 years communist then 10 years islamist. and after that the people decide which one works best. well actually, we prolly wont last that long if the capitalists get to start...

# Not all that speculative.
We have historical examples of Communism and contemporary examples of Islamism to look at.

Would you prefer to live in the Soviet Union, Iran, or the US? I know which one I'd prefer.
