.@antonio, it took me half an hour of my European sun-sitting and cappuccino-enjoying time to create this info graphic, so I expect an apology for spreading misinformation https://i.imgur.com/4hoGyyw.png

Except that’s not the relevant stat. It’s average age

Yeah, my graphic hides the fact that the European population pyramid is top heavy (that was intentional). But anyways, these data suggest that our active labor force is significantly bigger than that of the US. But sure Dan, you can zeihan-forecast that there'll be a demographic collapse soon, please go ahead 😆

Since Spotify, what’s the most interesting thing that’s come out of Europe. Note: plenty of interesting things from Europeans living / working in the US Europeans are great; EU is sclerotic cf. GPT

Also maybe this is silly, but in European cities we now have high quality food delivery to your doorstep with e-bikes within 15-20 minutes (Flink, Gorillaz). This has been a game changer for many. I think the US has it with Doordash too. But they fuckup the order, drive cars and it takes way longer.

This is @antonio’s whole point which I agree with: average quality of life in Europe is better! But the future of civilization is not being built there.

You should try delivery here in Medellin. Groceries can take <10 minutes to your door. Insane.
