This role of "world police" has not paid off for the US for the last 50+ years we've been doing it.
Idk their economy definitely has benefitted from stuff like international shipping (which their "world police" have been essential in protecting) it's just that they allow their oligarchs to seize most of the profits. Their government definitely didn't take up the role out of the good of their hearts!
I don't think international shipping was under much threat from Iraq or Afghanistan.
