Yeah sure. That's why Americans patiently waited until Britain decided it was in it's best interests to grant their colonies independence. And civil war? That would be unthinkable in these united states. American workers would never press for a better deal or use tactics like the sit-down strike. Moreover, the wave of rapid social change which brought social welfare systems and made consumer societies possible missed our shores.
Right?
