Compared to Europe, the US has significantly more neutral enforcement of laws for domestic prize jewels. The EU, by contrast, barely enforces its own provisions (such as anti-bribery law) against shining European stars.
- drdec 1y agoAs a US citizen I am curious to hear examples of the EU holding back enforcement. That's not the sort of thing that would get reported here.
- whimsicalism 1y agoLook at basically any example of a major EU company engaged in bribery, such as Airbus and Glencore
- realusername 1y agoI don't know how you got to that conclusion, every single court case against a US giant is waived in the US. See Boeing which got pardoned recently as another example. While not perfect, the justice system seems usually more neutral in most EU countries.
- whimsicalism 1y agoIf you really want to talk aviation, Boeing pled guilty and settled and got fined billions of dollars and had to change safety practices. Compared to Airbus which was well known to be a major briber abroad and was protected in the EU until the US eventually brought FCPA action after it got ridiculously out of hand and EU regulators did nothing.
