What are you talking about? Booking is 5.3B revenue, 112B market cap. Adyen is 37B market cap. These are not "tiny" companies compared to public tech companies in the US, and there are more than just these two.

People need to look at actual facts and numbers before regurgitating the same old memes about how terrible Europe and the EU are.
