I fear that corresponding with you will become a pain in the butkis. It seems you tend to think in absolutes, possibly due to enjoying the beverage of similar name. However, "success" in the US can be traced to the founding documents of the nation, which by chance or by divine inspiration are the finest on this particular planet. Consider that the USA is the only nation on earth founded with the express goal of promoting life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness - of individual happiness - as long as you follow the rules. The intent of government to release the human imagination from the shackles of bondage is what creates inspiration to start businesses, patent a drug, etc. The wealth that such a system creates can also be abused, and such abuse can create the system's collapse.
