During this time of hegemony we've also had major developments in medicine, farming, manufacturing worldwide. How can you say the world is better off with US hegemony? There is no control to compare it to. Humanity has improved materially in the last 100 years, in SPITE of American dominance. I would ask the thousands of people killed every year by US munitions if they believe the world has been improved.
America had a hand in all of that and help the world grow. You complain about american munitions but there has not been large state on state conflicts since ww2. There have been regional wars but nothing like ww1 and ww2. Hundreds of millions die in world wars. Thousands that die due to conflict are a miracle given human history.
