Socialist Victory (satire)

Although dubbed the USS White Elephant by some skeptics, the fact is our people have inherited a glorious and spanking new floating city, suitable for volunteer staffing and operating, not to mention perpetual refueling.

This communally owned property further bolsters the psychological power of our mostly-male, world-dominating USSA socialist hierarchy and its veneer of nominally "private sector" companies at the service of our hive-mind collective.

The Empire State is suitably thrilled, according to all patriotic news sources. Making payments for the foreseeable future, against a billion dollars and counting, to whatever Chinese banks, will not be a problem. The floating city itself is ample collateral.
