> It is much easier for infrastructural change to happen in most other countries because they are much smaller. This doesn't make sense - the US benefits great

  It does have to build much longer roads, pipelines and power lines between towns though, including in many sparsely populated areas.

  Unless I'm mistaken and in light of the fact that infrastructure is mostly publicly funded, this is pretty much (true but) completely irrelevant. Smaller countries also often depend on and have a very close relationship with the major private companies. For instance, Samsung builds apartments and helps fund subways.
