Here is the context:

The country needs to find a way out of this political paralysis not only to retain its global leadership but also to exercise it. If it can be bothered, the U.S. commands enormous untapped capacity and wealth.

-Excerpted from The Next American Century by Andres Martinez

«can’t be bothered» means you do not want to make an effort to do it, so what does «can be bothered» mean?

BTW, is the sentence an example of the Subjunctive Mood? Because it seems to me there is something missing between «the U.S.» and «commands» such as the modal verb can.

If it is, what are the connotations of the sentence?
