Neither side.  I find the idea of Soviet domination of the world little
more horrifying than the idea of U.S. domination of the world.  From a
global perspective, the existence of a couple hundred million people
with some special privileges doesn't make much difference.  As long as
the U.S. views the rest of the world as spoils to be won in a conflict
with the Soviet Union we have no reason to feel morally superior.
