U.S. Corporations haven't been innovative in a long time, because they don't have to be. They wait for some small company to think of something good then they buy them out. They have so little competition that they hit the too big to fail level. The leadership of course get massive bonuses and their employees get nothing or worse, laid off.

The fact is that U.S. corporations don't seek to be the best, they seek a means to fleece the public. There is no investment in the future, only profit.
