Europe IS silly. What developed nation(s) wouldn't follow the architecture of the absolute greatest nation in the history of mankind?
Socialized healthcare? Licenses for televisions? There is zero motivation to have a job, particularly in England. None of the English people I know online have a job. Yes, they are all over 18 years of age.
But honestly, what person would want to lose being babied by the government just to have the motivation to get a job? Definitely not Europeans. It's just a tacky place to live. Sure, culture, but an awful place to live.
Many Europeans would agree with me, especially those who have lived in both Europe AND America.
