First, the EU's unemployment rate is always going to be higher than the US's because unemployment is treated differently there.

So you think unemployment in the EU isn't higher than the US, that its just a statistical aberration?

Or by "treated differently there" are you talking about more generous unemployment benefits? True they to tend to keep unemployment levels higher, but that's not exactly a good result.

Secondly, the EU does not produce the rate of job growth that the US produces.

Thank you.

There are a whole host of reasons for that fact that have little to do with socialism.

Perhaps, but social democrat/semi-socialist polices have a lot to with it.

For the poor and average resident of the EU, life is much better than it is for the poor or average resident of the US.

Poor? Possibly. Average? No.
