> Is it the historic innovation, American culture in general? LOL no. Pretty much all European industry was destroyed by world ward 2, they then had to buy from America and help improve their industry to beat the Nazi. Not trying to belittle American contribution to ww2 which was obviously massive just pointing out that America "lost" one harbour but pretty much every European country lost pretty much every industry they had. After ww2 America had an industry with loads of spending money, they innovated while every one else was rebuilding. The rest of the world has been playing catchup ever since with varying degrees of success. Since Europeans, Americans and China are all as brainy as each other its really hard to catch up unless you can make a sacrifice Americans cant for example sacrifice your peasents as cheap labour. It looks like China will beat America with this attitude, when it does will other countries adopt Chinas "winning" attitude? or be left behind?
