Maybe companies, but they are not what should matter. As far as know the amount of poor people in the usa is also way higher than in Europe. If we take that into account i'd say that Europe is doing just fine.

- RestlessMind 3y agoWasn't it just last year that the richest man and the richest woman in the world were both French? A statement at "Europe" level is far too generic, especially when it comes to economic policies or quality of life. Europe includes both Norway and Moldova and the variance in the quality of life is much higher than Massachusetts vs Mississippi.
