Sure. The reasons where US shines & is able to draw talent is probably several of these:

* US is absolutely the leader in innovation. No doubts about it.

* Champion of democracy. The US political system & constitution has inspired a lot of other countries. Its a very immaculately drawn political system built on checks & balances

* High degree of choices to an individual to shape his life

* High degree of demographic diversity.

* Good quality secondary & college/university education.

* A general attitude to question the status quo - which is necessary to bring change.

* Secure nation militarily.

* Peaceful & cooperative neighbors, who engage symbiotically for the better of all stakeholders.

* High social mobility for a lot of people (not all but a big chunk).
