Forgive me if I don't care about an opinion piece by someone who hates America. > America is built mostly on immigrant work ethic Isn't it interesting how many believe the US was solely built by immigrants, slaves, and natives. I wonder what American citizens did during this time? > the collapse of the european powers The US was already inventing and building in the 1800s, no collapse needed. > Not sure america is that special, just lucky - right place, right time. It's easy to ascribe luck to anything successful. You could say Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Google, Facebook, etc were nothing special, just lucky - right place, right time, but I don't think that's true.
