We had alot of great inventors plus a free market

Liberty

in the system of liberty the common man is not limited to commonality. He is encouraged to solve his problems and thus the problems of his community.
Thus...tired of smelling horse crap and eating dust in a wagon all day...invent an alternative...and we have the automobile, the bicycle, the motorcycle

automobile too slow...want to see what the clouds taste like?
airplane

candlelight hurting your eyes...lightbulb

tired of your wife complaining about her aching back, tired of seeing her hands bleed from doing laundry on a washboard...washing machine

all of the great machines and inventions that came about in the dawn of the industrial era were because man was at liberty to solve his own problem

If we hadn't been stifled by socialism beginning in the early 20th century, we would be living even better than we are today. Indeed, the last area of non regulation is the internet and computing products and that is the only place we see innovation and progress today.

the key is not freedom, God makes us all freemen and no one can take it from you despite what the world says. THe key is LIBERTY.
Liberty is the state of affairs that most allows you to make the absolute most of your God given freedom.

give me liberty or give me death for surely all we can hope for without liberty IS death...death of the spirit, death of comfort and ease, death of invention and creativity and finally death and some unmarked grave, a life wasted on the frivolity of others needs.

Rah rah rah! What bullshit.

Economically the USA is at the bottom of the pile. Owing what? 14 trillion dollars mainly to China, does not give you economical clout. Having a large Army,Navy and Airforce backed with advanced technology does.
