I'm really curious, from an economic perspective. I could never figure out an answer to this. Someone said they make a killer amount of money "behind the scenes" by selling arms and ammunition. But I don't think that is enough, even if it's added to the established firms. I thought it was because after WWII their companies had a time advantage and just made their money back then and maintained foothold.
The US has soooo much money. Anytime, in any place, when there is a firm that is doing well, some US firm will buy them out, simply because they have so much money. In Canada, Tim Hortons, The Bay, Molson...all got bought out by US companies. In England, soccer teams, Liverpool, Manchester United, Portsmouth, and sooner or later even Arsenal...all have American owners.
What do they do that makes them so rich? Does it have something to do with their policies? Are the people just really enterprising (how do you get people to be enterprising)...WHAT MAKES THEM SO RICH!!??
