All of those regulation are being stripped away in Europe too, at an increasing rate. They only existed in the first place as a result of labour militancy in the pre-neoliberal era, and they started being eroded the moment that was fully crushed.

The people who control legislation don't answer to you, and the people they do answer to don't want them 'tackling tax havens' or any of the other regulations you do.

and yet the EU keeps adding regulations

e.g https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Services_Act

i think you might be wrong

I mean, if you want to pretend like Europe isn't going the same direction as the USA, you're welcome to deny reality, I can't stop you.

Yeah, I'm sure people will find your "Europe is actually moving in the right direction and everything is fine!" claim very convincing.

I didn't know Senator McCarthy was still alive and posting on Lemmy.

[–] jimmy90 -1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Don't worry, you'll figure it out eventually.
