Kidding aside, when it comes to innovation China is kicking the US in the teeth right now. They are spending $1.5 trillion is key areas such as batteries, wind, solar, bio-pharma. We spend ~17% of GDP on defense while China spends ~3-4%. And we wonder why we are losing our technological advantage.

The flag-waving H-D crowd may just have to buy a Chinese made Harley someday
