  That's why any startup that wants business will make an Inc in the US.
  
  It's legally much simpler to do so, and leave your offices in the cheap 
  EU. US Inc can employ your offices and at the same time have no people 
  working in the US.

  US is saved by ruthless capitalism. When I see what politicians from my 
  country voted on I'm realizing that journalists, political science 
  majors, historians, spanish/english/lang language teachers, 
  philosophers, artists and bunch of other social scientists know much 
  about nothing - maybe it says something about our national universities, 
  maybe about these science areas as a whole, who knows. But for some 
  reason they think they are capable of having a career in politics, and 
  it works.
Eh? Did you read the article?

It states that the US has more stringent and complete controls on net neutrality than the EU. The EU has loopholes, therefore less controlling and protectionist (consumer) than the US.

If you want to take corporate advantage of lax net neutrality protection laws, then you are better off utilising "ruthless capitalism" in the EU (for this particular instance), and not in the US.

You argument is backwards.

And each EU country implements the directives as it sees fit and can vary widely compare how TUPE is handled for example.

So you can expect some EU countries to play favorites with there ex PTO or Powerful Media interests.
