If you're claiming they "exploited" WWII, it's a claim that doesn't make any sense. The US was in a better state at the end of the war because the battles had largely taken place in other nations. They benefited from the rest of the world having hardship, but there was nothing to "exploit" As for its involvement in the third-world, it paled in comparison to the activities *prior* to WWII. I'm not sure what you consider "inefficiencies" although I suspect you consider overt colonialism an "efficiency" and are knocking the US for not just conquering the nations then looting them.
