I don't necessarily agree with Bernie, but I do like what you've done here. It does speak to how people's experience with empire differs wildly -- it can be an edifying force or a destructive force, based on context, class and even luck. I find that an interesting topic, one I'm exploring myself in Lioness.
I love the line "The hard road lays before us all. It will not grow easier if no one paved it." Really gets to the heart of this dichotomy.
