Ever hear of Calculus? Not invented by an American. Also: Penicillin, Reletivity, HTML, the computer, paper, gunpowder, the car (despite what you said) - infact nothing is invented in America, or anywhere else, from science that is solely the possesion of that country. Some countries have a history and culture that enables rapid development and change, and in this area the US has excelled for 100 years. But that can change.
As far as "trusting China", the original party was right, we don't. TO be more precise, we don't trust the Chinese Communist Party, and I feel we are right not to. They've never done anything for us. On the other hand, that 28 year old kid in Shanghai with a cell phone attached to his head, trying to figure out how to put together his next deal, him I trust. I understand him, and I know what he'll do if given the opportunity. And he will do well, for the world and for China if he's allowed to follow his instincts.
