So at least for today, let’s remember:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There’s no better place on Earth to start a business, take a risk, dream big \u2014 doing what you chose to do, where you chose to do it.
We’re the widest, deepest, richest, most transparent economy anywhere \u2014 the engine behind phenomenal growth and wealth.
We’re the greatest meritocracy on earth, unshackled from limits of age or pedigree. We’re wired for risk.
We can think, say and worship as we please without fear of imprisonment. Faith may be fading, but the freedom to practice is unfettered.
We stir and enjoy a magical cocktail of democracy, capitalism and individual freedom that produces history-bending ideas like AI.
We’re protected by the world’s strongest military \u2014 at once the most feared and the most sought after by other nations for help.
We’ve got two protective oceans on our shoulders, friendly neighbors to our north and south, and abundant energy beneath us.
We’ve racked up four straight years of record energy production on our soil.
We’ve created history’s longest-surviving democracy, with a rare ability to evolve and meet the craziest challenges.
We’re still young \u2014 and learning.
