Have you been to Western Europe lately? Their infrastructure, culture, activities, education, and social values dominate the USA in every way. We have bigger cars, more money, and more guns than them though.

- orwin 4y agoI agree with you that on HN, people see europe with rose-tinted glasses (or rather, only see the bad part of the US, because Europe is pretty cool to live in or to visit, as are the US). But your comment should be left on twitter or reddit, please.

To me, the freedom to strike is a positive for Europe. It says a lot about who own the power in a particular country imho.
