cost of living vs quality of living : Frankly, this is true almost only for Paris.
I live in Nantes right now (after 7 years in the Netherlands) and the quality of living is great, at a fraction of the price in Paris.
Second, not everybody is a libertarian, so I'm quite OK with what you call "anti-libertarian landscape".
Bureaucratic mindset : Apart from Malta, have you ever lived anywhere else in Europe ? I don't know the bureaucratic mindset of Malta, but I can say that I did not find a great difference between France, the Netherlands and Germany for instance.
- weddpros 12y agoI also lived in Switzerland (5 years), where bureaucracy is definitely less of a problem than in France: it just works (the first time, not after weeks and 2 attempts). When I hear "France has great tax credits systems for startups", I think "if you spend months in paperwork, maybe". That's what I call a bureaucratic hell. As for being a libertarian, I guess it's the case of a majority of entrepreneurs. If one enjoys government control, he's probably not an entrepreneur... Who wants a 3500 page labour code like we have in France? Ever changing laws? New regulation and a new tax every month?
