We are still very socialist and also very inefficient. Europeans have high speed rail. We have canceled flights

Under normal circumstances maybe, but airports in Europe now are all sorts of fucked. Schiphol in Amsterdam has been overwhelmed all summer. Canceling flights, 2 hour security lines, etc. apparently laying off a bunch of staff during covid was a bad idea.
I thought I’d be smart and take the train from Paris to Amsterdam and it wasn’t much better. 1.5 hours delayed, and then ended up getting in so late that I missed the last train and had to cab home.
So it ain’t all sunshine and tulips. But the pros of living in a country where everyone has health care are very evident. Less fatties too.
