  1. Socialism is what happened. That’s why the USSR could never compete on the world markets even though they had many brilliant engineers and scientists. It kills competition and prevents accelerated growth.

  2. You should not fall to the obvious trap of associating stock market value to real value of companies. The stock market of US has distinct features for itself that distort a lot of that. The ASML is a proof of that. It is far more important and irreplaceable in the tech scenario than most of the bloated american "magnificent 7".
    If Meta disappears sudenly the world would adapt itself in a matter of weeks.
    If ASML disappears suddenly, it would be chaos. Even the Taiwan invasion becomes more likely.
    Even Embraer is more difficult to replace than Meta.
    Tesla now is far outpaced by the Chinese.

  3. The problem of Europe is not GDPR and related megislation. To say that Europe should copy the "Lassaiz Faire" approqch is a distraction and it is at best divisive. The problem is obviously the lack of capital directed to the home growth of tech companies.
    Giving up good regulation like GDPR woukd only replicate the biggest problem of USA: no matter how powerful its tech sector is, there is little positive consequences for the quality of life of its inhabitants. Only a few people gets benefits. It is a loosing wasteland anywhere with a few great castles.

  4. Outside of taxes and bureaucracy I don’t see any
    Field where Europe is succeeding the past 10 years
    Bad leadership leads to bad results.
    As globalists Biden Trudeau etc did in their countries.

  5. An ageing population electing traditional politicians with focus on traditional industries they all know and understand is also a part of the issue, basically keeping the continent married to the industries of the last century. And likewise the focus on the educations of the last century, too many construction worker and factory workers not enough electrical engineers. Again to appease the ageing voters and the world they know and understand. Also the lack of conglomeration of education, capital and companies like you see in Silicon Valley as you hint to in the video, with maybe only London and Stockholm showing glints of it. The Innovation-score of Denmark, one of the riches countries in the world, is on par with the innovation-score of Thailand.

  6. The explanation is: US has major companies focussed on marketing and stock value. Europe has a lot of small niche companies focussed on innovating.

    Ofcourse europe failed if you look at market value since all major US companies are focussed on creating massive bubbles in their industry. (Stock buybacks, monopolizing, anti competitive behaviour, regulation avoidance, etc.)

  7. I think the reason is different. Europe is not investing enough in arms. Most modern technologies were developed for an army and later used in customer products. USA and China are developing their military industries much more than Euopeans.

  8. Do you know CERN? Every big-tech company worldwide should pay billions for the scientific advancements they benefit from—thanks to European scientists who publish their findings freely for everyone. Even the World Wide Web (WWW) was developed here in 1989.

  9. Europe have not adapted to the computer age. It still thinks making mechanical machines are what is important. That is for example seen in patents, where software need to be connected to a machine, while in US you can patent a software program itself.

  10. I ended up watching in 1:21 😂 just an newbie will say europe is failing because Stock exchange or valuation per SE 😅😂 i mean whole world know that Americans shares are every Year becoming more and more overvalued , do not mention chinese companies 😅 they are set in different world and etc 😅😂 i mean just Tesla can basically buy out biggest companies in the world in car making from SE valuation, but they are the smallest car maker and etc 😅😂 the reason is simple, in europe We dont have 401 K or whatever, We dont do our pensions in shares or in SE. Those who do that, its like an add on to what government is giving you. And even We have one of the biggest funds companies for basically retiring , they basically do their investment in America because there is corporation nation 😅 if some of those funds investment in europe, its All in real estate. For example , one of the biggest car makers VW – they listed just 30% of shares and etc, the most biggest companies are private 😅

  11. The governments actively try to make it hard to create successful companies by taxing the shit out of them, driving the companies to asia and the us, where corporate taxes are more favourable. American capitalist system just works better for creating innovation and revenue. Of course having a large population, market and buying power within one country helps alot.

  12. Europe is irrelevant in today's world economy and geopolitics.
    Whatever the USA demands, Europe does, like a good dog 🐶
    The US is fixated on containing China, because China is imminently and inevitably overtaking it. 🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳

  13. My family from William Wilkinson also known as Wicked will a overshadowed information revolutionary during the later industrial revolution developed in the 1800's after many of my own tried and failed to deindustrialise what the English created in Stuart England and brought to Wales in the 1600's, my family ended up persecuted for helping Europe evolve because Europe is hated by many because of misunderstandings, my family being allied to Europe because of the old alliance created by Scottish Braveheart William Wallace did not want our European allies to be defeated or famished so we sneaked information to them by hinting info so they could avoid copying and so they could be proud self achievers, this deed we did for Europe may have saved their British opposition from continuous friendly fire accidents with peaceful outcome because Britain would stop fighting Europe and they would work together after resolving misunderstandings.

  14. It is not a tech issue, it is the dollar as standrad currency and economy of scale where the US economy and Chiense population is just way bigger than any European counterpart.
    if you are doing new tech you need finacing where the US is just way stronger than Europe (while China just fcous on it HARD and don't ask what any voters might perfer).

  15. Its because off Idiotic regulations put in place.
    The eu regulated itself out of the market.
    Try and start something and expect to get bombarded with 9999 regulation's

  16. US regulation is there to serve corporations and capital; EU regulations are there to serve citizens. The results are more difficult tech growth in the EU and short life expectancy in the US largely through uncontrolled chemical poisons allowed in all American foods, a heinously inaccessible and inefficient healthcare system and half of the jobs effectively being indentured service.

    EU regulations have there downside, but there is no money you could pay me to live in the US.

  17. Your Airbus example is off target and details are wrong: it was the A330 -> A350 evolution where customers asked for (and got) a clean sheet design, not the A300 as you mentioned. And pretty poor example as Airbus has been crushing Boeing for years.

  18. Those who know, know that ASML is basically at the top of the food chain. I think they deliberately stay under the radar else they would be sued for monopoly in a second.

  19. From what I saw in my time in Europe, it seemed like it was just dominated by the financial industry. If your industry believes that the world is full of risk and is inherently unpredictable, then you would never give any funding to some random kids (Facebook, Google, OpenAI, etc.).

    Innovation is kind of interesting from a psychological perspective. Many, and perhaps even most people legitimately don’t believe it exists. And people especially get tunnel vision when they filter themselves into these risk-averse industries.
