Your analysis was poignant and I often use your graphs to alert people to the reality of European decline. Most people here aren’t even aware of the Draghi report and the visuals are a nice shortcut to the necessary emotional punch. The verbose emptiness of Mr. Habeck’s replies is shocking and I wish he were the only inept politician in charge of a European economy, but we look in vain for inspiration in this field.. People who don‘t understand economics should never be in government and certainly never be in charge of economic development anywhere.

Most EU countries have HORRIBLE tax law relative to private company equity/stock. Getting equity to be culturally accepted as compensation is hard enough with good tax structure, but with the need to pay cash on illiquid startup equity (looking at you Italy) it's impossible.
