The latest attempt on my life, or a metaphor for American hegemony

As I was driving to work, I was nearly broadsided by a man driving an SUV, who hadn't been paying attention to what lane he wanted to be in until the last minute. When I backed off to let him in, I noticed his car was sporting a "United We Stand" bumper sticker. He was, of course, alone in his gas-guzzling vehicle. (I was alone in my gas-guzzling vehicle, too, but this isn't about me.)

Did I mention he was driving a Toyota?
