Why do people say that Americas never invented anything and are poor?

Steve Jobs invented the iphone, Ipad and Ipod and he was American.

Furthermore the computer, the A.C, the toilet, video game system, gas mask, electric guitar, light bulb was all invented by Americans.

Furthermore US has a median income(And for all you idiots who don't know what "median" is, it is the middle 50th percentile of the income population, not average, so the top 10% or what ever make no effect on it. ) of 44,000 which is ranked 6th in the world

IPhone 5s charging very very slowly?

I've had my iPhone for 8 months now and I've never had any bother with it at all. Without any changes my phone has suddenly slowed charging rate by hours, struggling to pass 4% in 1 hour. It started when my phone charger wouldn't sustain a continuos charge and the lightning icon to represent the phone being charged would flicker on and off repeatedly.

Today I went out and bought a brand new charger in hope that it was only a fault with the original one. Upon connecting it to the wall my phone has been struggling to charge at all and I've tried it in multiple power supplies around my house.

Has anyone else had similar issues or has an idea as to what may have done this?

Iphone, how to sync new music without erasing everything else?

Help! I wanted to add a few new songs to my iphone and when I wanted to listen to it later, I noticed that all of my other 200 songs were gone. Did I miss something in the syncing process? Should I change my settings? I'm sure its something simple.

Wrap present for my boss or no?

So I'm the assistant manager for a company and since the holidays are coming I'd like to get something for my manager. We both don't make a ton of money and I don't expect anything from them. However we both share a office we use to use the same port for charging our phones but we got new phones iPhone and Galaxy which have different charges than the regular ones most phones use. So to be nice I bought them a charger for the office. Is this something you'd just give them? Put a bow on it or wrap it? It's not much I know but I do t know if it's to much build up to wrap it and be oh a phone charger…
