Punk was Invented in the USA

I have gotten into so many arguements with people about this and I don't understand why. It's like if you don't believe punk was invented in the UK when there's obvious reasons this is wrong you are comitting a sin.The Stooges, The Velvet Underground, Mc5, Death(not the the death metal band), New York Dolls, The Kingsmen and The Trashmen are all from the USA. Stooges and Mc5 had direct influences on UK bands. The Ramones were together before either The Sex Pistols or the Clash. US punk bands began forming in 74, UK bands didn't start til 76. I'm not even a patriotic person, I could give a **** about the USA, but I can't take that people won't admit punk didn't start in England.
