The US is an incredibly easy country to start a company in. Low tax (yes, even if the media doesn't believe it), easy bankruptcy laws (you don't go to jail for defaulting on debts and you can start again), low corruption, low barriers to entry, government support in many industries, very weak labour laws in most states, plenty of capital floating about, etc. If you think the US is a difficult country to start a business in, you need some perspective. Relatively, it is one of the easiest countries in the world and the easiest large country (over 50 million people) for investment.
