Because the USA is a big economy where people speak only one language. Would Elon Musk be able to create same success if he started Starlink or SpaceX in Norway

  What about France? ArianeSpace was the SpaceX of the 80s (they had >50% market share of commercial satellite launches). There were plenty of other innovative European companies if you go back several decades. These days? Not so much..

  no, because it's illegal to work more than 48 hours a week. Which is like... The minimum to not get fired in the states. If you have more people willing to work longer hours... you win, thats it. It's pretty simple really.

  People only deserve success if they were born in a trash can during the civil war in Sudan. That's such a fucking dumb logic. Musk specifically went to Silicon Valley because that's where the opportunity were. But he was only one of many who tried to make it big. Just because the US is a big country doesn't magically create rockets that can fly to space.
