I believe states have their own bankruptcy codes?
Having lived/worked in both Europe and the US, the reason is, quite frankly, that they’re lazy (cultural) and not very smart (brain drain).
Their societies prioritize leisure over work. Nearly everyone with any drive moves to the US to earn much more money.
What a depressing outlook, ya'll really be living to work over there dont you. All hail the mighty GDP.

Large EU countries have a higher per capita scientific output than the US
If you weight papers by some measure of impact, e.g. by citation count, this is not true.
The Nature Index, which shows that data, already only selects the most impactful journals. I wasn't able to find any data that weighs output by citation count.
