  I am not 100% sure how to tackle your comment:

  Are you pro-monopolies or anti-regulations? Or maybe both?

  Have the communication giants (AOL, Comcast, …) thought you nothing?

    I’m pro progression, discovery, creativity and science. Things that aren’t happening in europe.

    They thought me things like semiconductor physics, hamming codes!

  It’s only “failing” if you take a corporatist, America-centric view.

    How so? Just look at the important computer science papers last decade: most were made by researchers at US firms. EU really is a tech desert, someone from malaysia to from brazil can see that, regardless of their politics.

      Not everyone subscribes to “numbers go up lol” as the only indicator of success.

        That’s not what this is about. More so: “What was previously thought unreachable was made possible”.

        EU is frozen in the 20th century, filled with conservative people unable to adapt.
