@WSJopinion WSJ obviously assumes that their readers are stupid, and haven’t looked at a battle map. The battle of. the Donbas is in its final stage, and it does not look good (at all) for Ukraine.

Pressure for a peace deal with Ukraine increasingly smells like pressure to rescue the regime in Moscow, writes Holman Jenkins

Open Spotify on your phone. That app was built in Stockholm. Same goes for Minecraft, Klarna, and Candy Crush. The cobblestones in those photos have produced more billion-dollar tech companies per person than anywhere on Earth except Silicon Valley.
Sweden has just 10 million people, roughly half the size of New York state. But it has produced more than 46 billion-dollar tech companies, with 11 of them based in Stockholm right now. The latest two arrived in 2025. Lovable, an app that lets anyone build software just by typing what they want, was worth 6.6 billion dollars by December. Legora, a tool that handles paperwork for lawyers, was valued at 1.8 billion dollars in October.
Three things explain how this keeps happening. The first is what Swedish people grew up with. In 1998, the government launched a program called the Home-PC reform. Employers bought personal computers and let workers pay them off in tiny chunks taken from their paychecks over three years. About 850,000 computers ended up in Swedish homes that way, reaching nearly a quarter of the country. By 2005, when Klarna was started, Sweden had 28 broadband connections per 100 people. The US had 17. The world average was under 4. A generation of Swedish kids grew up online before most countries even had reliable internet.
The second is the safety net. A founder whose startup blows up in Sweden still has healthcare and unemployment support. Risk feels different when failure doesn't mean homelessness.
The third is the money cycle. The people who got rich building Spotify and Klarna twenty years ago keep pouring that money back into new Swedish startups. Former Klarna employees alone have started 62 new companies.
Today, the Swedish tech scene is worth around 345 billion dollars. The country pulls in more startup investment per person than anywhere else in Europe. Spotify alone now has 293 million paying users. About 30 of them for every single person living in Sweden.

@Drakulvv It's related to that too, but you understood what I was trying to say.

@the_ason @JCeacc @BiankaB12 We are doing fine dude. Free health care, free medicine for kids. I have a large house, new car, no school shootings, clean air clean water no poison in my food. Both me and everyone I know is definitely doing better than we did 20 years ago.

@JCeacc @BiankaB12 I'm talking about the EU as a whole not you as an individua. That European education on full display

I don’t understand why so many Americans on this app continue to pretend everything is fine in the U.S. and focus on the “europoor” narrative being fed to them.
Everything is not fine. People are struggling.

A good question for all Europeans to ponder at some stage during five weeks of paid holiday
The Wall Street Journal@WSJ
From @WSJopinion: What happens when Europeans find out how poor they are? The Continent trails far behind U.S. economic output. Politics is bound to catch up sooner or later, writes Joseph Sternberg. on.wsj.com/4n5v2Wq
English

Well, US GDP per capita is actually way higher than Europe's, and data shows the bottom 20% here often have better average income and consumption than their European counterparts.
Europe's services are nice, but they come with slower growth and heavier taxes that hold back broader gains.
Bottom line, America's approach delivers stronger real outcomes for more people, even if the top pulls ahead.
It is difficult but it would help the EU to regulate less and let the entrepreneurial environment foster far more.

@alt3sevens @ClashRoyale Haven’t played for day and now seeing this. Yeah I’m staying in brawl stars.

I want @ClashRoyale to know that adding shit like this to the game is the reason your revenue is declining
No amount of marketing, tricking kids to spend money, or begging for Jynxzi to come back will stop this never ending death spiral

@unclephillyL It’s so goddamn close tho. Honestly I go back and forth about which is better. I know one thing tho: they’re both better than Breaking Bad (I also love Breaking Bad)
