Ingratiation is what I described. Most obviously, the United States political, social, financial, media, educational, entertainment, arts, and you name it. It's either outright owned, owes all of its financing to (and therefore is behold to) this power-behind-the-throne influence (note I said "control," you called it "dominance," and these are very different things). The United States still for the time being by far the most potent player on the board, this power is considerable--maybe even ultimate.

Is it your position that this is not so?
