There are some valid points in there but “Europe” is too vague a label for this post. It’s the difference between Greece and the US (or Greece and SFBA).
So the good move is to build business in US, fleecing people there and turning it even more into dystopia, and live in EU and keep it the way it is - liveable - because people have self-restraint here and unlimited, reckless, net-negative greed is not considered a virtue.
If you are ambitious and want to work hard and build and solve problems, it's just a way better reality. That optimistic outlook, and the idea that you can do it, is so freeing and fun if you like to build and solve problems.
I felt the burden of accumulated rules and scarcity mindset back in Europe. And if you want to build a company you feel the push down at every layer. You feel it from family, friends, clients, co-founders, the government, etc. I cannot see myself coming back and living there.
People are different and countries are different, so you can experience a glimpse of abundance mentality in Europe too at different levels, but very very far from the way you experience it in the US. They have tons of problems too, but if you solve problems at scale you make the money to solve most of those problems.
