We sit here in the imperial core and expect that nothing we do globally will ever come back to haunt us (except it has and likely will again). We think that exporting our ideas and culture is good for the world, but that's just as unlikely to be true for us, just as it is for China. I'm sure the us would love an EU/UK with private health care and weaker unions and labor laws.
