In the US you can go from broke to rich in ten years if you work hard, take risks and make smart moves.
Meanwhile in Europe? Good luck. Climbing the social ladder is a bureaucratic nightmare. Want to make serious money? Better be born into it. The system is so tightly controlled and packed with “equality” rules that it kills ambition and rewards mediocrity. The only thing truly “free” there is your right to stay stuck.
Americans lives in bigger houses, bigger cars bigger meals. In Europe you will spend a fortune to live in a tiny apartment, drive a glorified scooter and pay double for gas. Why? Because everything is either overtaxed, banned or inefficient.
“Public transport is better in Europe.” Because people cant afford to own anything. That is not efficiency, that is economic handcuffs.
America didnt just build companies it reinvented the economy. Apple, Google, Amazon, Facebook, Microsoft these are empires. They started in garages and dorm rooms and now run the global digital world. Europe? Europe gave us Spotify. And even that had to expand to the US to survive. Why? Because Europe is scared of risk, overloaded with rules and hates disruption. Try launching a startup in France or Germany and you will drown in paperwork before you even raise your first dollar.
Europe is stuck in its own echo chamber. It brags about its history, praises its safety nets, and talks big about ethics and equality while slowly falling behind. Its population is aging, its economy is slowing and its innovation is stalling. It’s a museum pretending to be a rocket ship.
The US is a capitalist beast and it is not sorry. It creates giants, embraces risk and churns out billionaires. Europe? Still writing reports and forming committees.
