US business can get most of these things through outsourcing/offshoring to the developing countries like China. It's much simpler/less risky to do that than install a fascist regime in the US.
There is also no threat to the US globally in the foreseeable future, unlike Germany, Italy and Japan which had to challenge and destroy British/American power.
