Which would explain why I asked. Looks to me like an attempt to copy. But I am open to considering your explanation, should you offer it.

I did refer to it, in fact quoted it in post 31. But hey, not to worry. It is just semantics. Copy v design. Sorry for your loss.

So, would it be fair to contemplate that following free market capitalism could contribute to a country's ability to be more technologically advanced? Who is the most technologically advanced country, or even further which country has brought about the most technological advances?

Sure it's fair to say that, but the question becomes why do you feel as though they are obligated to do so?

So is the U.S.A the most technologically advanced in part due to freedom? Free capitalism, results in competition? (maybe mixed up the order?)
