I find this to be an incorrect assumption. American society is ossified in many respect while still allowing some innovation, especially if it's on the frontier. The problem is that we don't want to create new 'frontier' after having already occupied them, preferring that we pull up the ladders on anyone young or disadvantaged at the expense of all of us, leaving if not trillions, billions of dollars on the table.
