It's the EU, where regulation, not innovation, is what makes the world a better place.

To be fair, lack of regulation didn't stop us in America from passing the Patriot Act.

  • USA allows overreach from both government and corporations. But pretends to hate a strong government. EU allows overreach from government, but limits corporations. And pretends for it to be about rights, but in practice it's about keeping the overreach to themselves (the government).
