The only things the US has left are the culture and the hype - people are either taken in by the ability to be at the epicenter (which is very important for most entrepreneurs) or by the propaganda/marketing/promises. Otherwise, it's pretty easy to start a company in other countries, especially if it's mainly operating online. The US is unbeatable in one thing, though: you can find almost anything you want at prices much lower than any other countries. That's an important advantage no matter what industry you're in, or heck, even for everyday life.
