Of course their involvement was significant in how things played out. But your analogy would like be saying the USSR would have been dominated by Germany without the US entering the war with a Europe first strategy. It would have been a str

Uh Hong Kong wasn't invaded? The British returned control of it to China when the '100 year lease' expired. Somewhat similar situation with a foreign power supporting a democratic government, except support for Taiwan is much

France & Spain were very strategic to how things played out, but they joined years into the war after the failure of the Germain plan at Saratoga. Once the US revolution got under way, England had a herculean task of trying to occupy th

This. You have much cheaper ways to validate than building something without talking to people.

Yeah we live in a globalized world, corporations are global entities and companies from other countries made meaningful contribution. They still were predominately developed, tested, manufactured and distributed by US companies... thats why

> How do I get over constant failure? Constant failure? You are highly compensated and have a mortgage for a house, presumably in a very high cost of living area. It seems like you are an insecure overachiever and need to reframe things.
