I don't see why. The USA is one of the most corporate-friendly countries out there and is absolutely forgiving of large scale fraud in a way other countries aren't. This corporate friendly approach has also facilitated enormous success, of course. As for the slavery thing, 1/3 is probably an exaggeration (I don't see how you could ever get data on it because people wouldn't be truthful) but it's also pretty indisputable that the US has a horrific history with regard to race, and that deep set racial problems persist today.
