>>13220582>you seem to be one of the really poor euros, unlike France or Switzerland where LHC isWrong, I'm from Switzerland and have worked in Austria and the lowlands briefly.
>but at the same time it is what holds back europe from advancing, in science and otherwiseI have yet to see an explanation as to how Europe is being "held back" when we have the highest per capita everything (excluding unsustainable breeding). We also have the highest volume of high tech product exports and Germany alone has the second highest chemical exports. Even China's factory equipment is mostly designed in Germany.
What you really mean is "Europe is behind America in the tech sector" which is true only if you think in pure economic terms. The first general purpose electronic computer and the internet were both invented in Europe.
The only real truth is "Europe is behind on protectionism, cybersecurity and propoganda softpower", everyone is making a really big mistake for confusing the bad system (of openness, patent theft etc.) with the working systems of European research and academia.
