Are you implying that the US, and the Roman's, never had a period of growth and expansion that wasn't late stage capitalist rot?

The comment isn't saying this never happens really, it's saying it doesn't have to. This is capitalism with no guardrails.

The US and Rom were always run by and for the Ruling Classes never for the people.
