EU is more stable. A sigle person can't declare themselves dictator and unilaterally start applying rules affecting the whole of EU.

And the "extreme" tax thing is just pure propaganda. USA pays just as much, but it's not called a "tax", it's just insurance copays (whatever that is), credit card fees, childcare fees, tuitions etc.

As I often point out here, my marginal rate where I live (Ireland) and what I'd have paid in California were almost identical.

Now California is a high-tax state, but given that there's no health insurance included that seems pretty similar to me.

That’s right they can’t just like lock everybody down into their homes and force them to get a vaccine for no freaking reason. The ex dream tax is what we pay in California which is driving all the business businesses out and driving all the homelessness in. The extreme tax is what midwits like yourself protect with the ferocity only surpassed by that of which you show for non-citizens

I don't think the taxes are a big factor. The most entrepreneurial tech-oriented startup hubs in the US are the highest taxed states.

The regulatory environment does make a difference.
