America does not need to build the largest, we have always seen largest as the forte’ of our Russian brethren. We do however do very well building the best, and building so much of it that nearly everyone here can benefit from it.
Remember one thing, America is not a people unto themselves, but parts of all lands and peoples. We possess all of the great strengths that come with being the melting pot of the world. America has pioneered the breakthrough technologies that other countries now exploit for profit.We produce so much food the we can afford to give it away to countries in need (If their petty leaders dont steal it from their people) We have made possible the quantum leaps in medical technology, and Pharmacology. In agricultural technology we are leaders. And what is yet to come, Others may surely develop some awesome things, large and small, but the root origin of these endeavors will mostly lie at our doorstep. Even the very large and cool truck posted above, and my personal favorites. P.S. You are correct in one example of our thinking small, the Atom, that is pretty small, so you got us there,
