How did America become the most advanced country?

[Anonymous]

People from Europe moved to America and made America more advanced than their original home Europe.

America is, as someone accurately described it, a Brooks Brothers suit on a homeless dude. Through dint of mega tax breaks to rich crooks, the world's first poor rich country or first rich poor country, depending upon your outlook. It's BY FAR the least advanced First World nation.

Turkey has less homeless percentage. Does it make Turkey more advanced than USA?

In Turkey, families don't kick their children out after they grow up. They keep staying in family house. That is the reason.

[Asker]

Turkey is much poorer than USA yet there is much less percentage homeless people

[beefcakebradybatson]

Turkey has an autocratic leader, which America is emulating.

[Asker]

If we go by percentage of homeless people, according to that, Turkey would be a more advanced country since far less percentage of people are homeless, which is because families dont kick out their children from the house

[Asker]

This is the reason of homelessness in USA and Europe.

[Asker]

Staying in family house is extremely normal in Turkey

I won't say America is advanced country. But America has more accumulated power than any other countries.

America spends more into their military, and whole world is mostly dependent on dollars value. That gives America enormous hard power.

Now the opportunities that America and it's infrastructure, and economy gives to the talent to flourish there, it gives it a huge soft power.

The Soviet Union's bloated military compared to its consumer economy led to its downfall. America's economy is far stronger than the USSR's near its demise, but the gross wealth inequities will sink it, likely by 2040 if not sooner.

It’s not the most advanced country. I’m pretty sure that title belongs to Japan.

Your answer is impossible because europeans failed to do the same in Europe. Proving it was not the europeans ability.

But American free market capitalism motivated people to try and have more opportunity than Europe.

I think that was maybe true till... the eighties? War-torn Europe needed a few decades to rebuild. After the infamous Reaganomics had their impact things are moving backwards for the average American.

[beefcakebradybatson]

But many are too dumb to notice, DryGermanGuy.

[DryGermanGuy]

Unfortunately true. But there are always the next elections.

The way the Trump Crime Family is dismantling America to sell it to the highest bidder, there may not be a 2028 election.

Advanced?

Are you being sarcastic?

[Asker]

Everybody knows America has been the most advanced country

[ChicoFromThe305]

They put a shit ton of money in the military but I don't think they are the most advanced, I think Dubai is or one of them rich middle eastern places
