The jet engine was invented by Sir Frank Whittle in Britain.

The World Wide Web was invented in 1989 by British computer scientist Sir Tim Berners-Lee

And should I get started on vaccines (that Americans are stupidly shedding out), Pasteurization (that Americans are advocating against) or maybe the literal microscope? The field of Genetics? Dare I even mention Botilinum toxin they are filling their faces with at the White house? The list is endless. And this is only in my field (medicine)

You realize that the vast majority of Americans also think those things are ridiculous, right? 

Shall I judge your home country on its dumbest impulses?

I am aware that the normal citizen is normal, thanks. Sorry if it was not clear but I was using Americans as short-hand for the American administration

But to be completely honest too, for a country that has entitled itself to invade us in 2003 and lecture us on modernity, it is kinda ironic to see what rulings their leader is making now…

And to answer your question: You would be fully allowed (since we made the first law system) to judge our government in a text (since we invented the first writing system) at the time (since we invented the first time system) we come into your country and steal all its wealth to put it in our banks controlling when you can access it while your population starves. Once that happens, i promise your analogy would be equitable.

Amazingly almost everything you said is incorrect.
