Explanation:

In what way was it better for the US to receive this foreign investment than not to receive it?

This extra foreign investment made the stock of their capital larger. This made their capital stock more stable and safer, especially in a downturn. In turn this attracts potential investors (foreign and domestic) to the US' markets.

In what way would it have been better still for Americans to have made this investment?

If Americans made the investment themselves then they would have received the returns themselves, in the form of dividends, instead of the returns leaving the US economy and being paid out to foreign investors.
