> But no one wants to immigrate to European countries because they think it is a "land of opportunity"

At least no one with a high market value, yeah. I agree in general, Europe's model is very different from that of the US, it's much more stable, less flexible, much slower moving, more regulated, with higher taxes. You don't rise quite as high, you don't fall quite as low. It's "move fast and break things" vs "don't break things, move at an appropriate speed".

More like "move fast and break people" vs " dont break people, move at an appropriate speed."

They don't have people ... they have "human resources" ;(

Though European companies (and states) have been quite happy to go break people, too. They're just not breaking them in large numbers at once, yet.
