George;
I see a parallel between the United States, the Roman Empire and Sparta. Now in the case of Sparta, the example of a mother addressing her son comes to mind along with many other thoughts. “Do not come home unless it is upon your shield”!
The Spartan mother expected her son to fight anyone he was pointed in front of – to the death. We have to go out and conquer the world to bring freedom, democracy, liberty, morality, the correct religious belief, and oh yes – credit cards! :)
