| Summary: | "The United States has led other nations in creating a legal, economic, social, and political ecosystem that has proven extraordinarily effective at fostering entrepreneurship. Evidence of this country's status as a powerful launchpad for entrepreneurship runs throughout its history. It is not a coincidence that America was itself an entrepreneurial venture in Revolutionary times, nor that many of the early settlers were themselves merchants and entrepreneurs. But the dynamism stems importantly from the country's commitment to two core values--the defense of property rights and of the right to compete. While other nations have framed these values as a trade-off or even a contradiction, the U.S. has managed them in dynamic tension more or less from the nation's inception."-- |
