passthedutchie i've been here far too long as so far you're the only person i'd 100% agree with.

Yes the United States generates innovation and development, but it also loses points in the humanity department. Take a look at the pharmaceutical and agriculture industries, and how their advancements could greatly benefit the third world and developing countries, but they are more focused on the profits that go above and beyond funding their R&D budgets.
I'd go one step further and say they could also benifit many US citizens - if they could afford them.
