The reason Europeans went for the New World in the first place was massive debts from a long tradition kicking the shit out of each other. (First they were looking for a back door to the resource rich East, then they saw an opportunity to exploit the land they found.)
Empire was a band aid that didn't help the European learn their lesson, which was to stop kicking the shit out of each other.
Eventually they kicked each other in the face so hard that everything fell apart, no empire and completely at the mercy of the US and the USSR.
But now, with the occasional spasmodic nod to its past, Europe is beginning to heal itself, and the vengeance it will reap upon the rest of the World will not go unnoticed by the fat, ugly, muttrace of Ameristan.

For the UK at least, its a combination of the following,
> Get paid a pittance for your job, even as an engineer with a masters degree your pay is shit, you basically have to become chartered to start making decent money at around £60k a year.
> We get raped by taxes, gotta pay for RNHS and bennies for degenerate scum, and if you got chartered engineer status guess what, you are now probably making enough to be hit with 40% income tax. ALSO have to pay for the local council that does fucking nothing for your community except serve as a catch all for fuckwit retards who cant even pull pints they're so devoid of brains.
> High immigration to sustain our slave population of Albanian food deliverers and Paki taxi drivers + ensure GDP line go up coupled with not enough houses AND the government makes you sell of a percentage of new houses to the council so they can be used to house their slaves further driving prices up.
> Anyone competent either fucks off or stores their assets off shore to avoid the tax rape, and the slave population don't make enough to be taxed, and an ageing population we are forced to pay for means the taxable population decreases while the bennies class increases, meaning more tax rape for middle classes.

Europeans have a bass-akwards transportation system. Here in the US, we move vastly more freight by rail than Europe, and most people drive cars. Europeans clog their rails with money pit passenger trains, and end clog their roads with more trucks. The greater flexibility cars allow individuals, combined with cheaper transport of bulk items enabled by rail, result in significant economic efficiency gains for the US.

I hope when people experience cold and shortages in winter people will finally get angry at politicians, but I fear they're already too far gone.

Socialism and high taxes have destroyed all economic incentives to work hard. Hence, everyone is just trying to do the bare minimum to get away. Then ignorance is really one big issue. I'm French and when I talk with people, they simply don't realise how poor we have become. They still think we are somewhat as rich as Americans despite a Mcjob in the US or a cashier job in Switzerland bringing as much money as an engineer job here.

I have full health care and it costs me LESS yearly then it does you with what is taken our for taxes yearly.
The only difference is that health care in your country is compulsory, you pay out the ass for it in taxes on every paycheck. In the US its either provided by an employer or is otherwise optional.

Yeah this is a big part of it. The public isector in any nation is low efficiency too. So many people in the public sector are involved in useless Sisyphean tasks. And all the social welfare just encourages more people to not be in the labor force so unemployment is higher too.

The primary reason for the more recent disparity between the US and EU is the financial crisis after 2008. The EU has allowed way too many zombie companies to persist. There's no good solution to the gdp disparity between the lower productivity southern countries either and the higher productivity northern nations.

He's right. Anyone with real skills feels it and lives it.
I'm an engineer and work at most 50% of any given year because taxes are too high. Sit on welfare for the other 50% of the year to get my taxes back. I have no interest in supporting abo's and international aid to Israel and government diversity hires. I refuse to be a net positive to a system I disagree with. I'll be a net nothing or negative and help it collapse.

The way you talk you obviously have no skills and are a net negative. Otherwise you'd be pissed that 50% of your labour gets stolen and given to abo's and nigger immigrants whom I could care less if they were dead. I would kill them myself if it would reduce the money stolen from me.

Welfare is horseshit and needs to go. It can only work in a homogenous white society that actively looks down on people on it, and when it's low enough that it's not a sustainable life choice.

You don't get it do you, part of the reason Europe is poorer than the US is because Europe has better public transportation. Public transportation and the lack of general mobility it causes stifles an economy, reducing people's options for employment & business's options for employees. The greater flexibility & mobility cars enable are a massive boon to the economy in general. Plus passenger trains clog up the rail lines, making all sorts of bulk goods more expensive. Euros would be better off taking the giant piles of money they spend on public transit & instead building more roads, subsidizing cars for poorfags, and upgrading rail lines to handle heavy freight better.
