Résumé

Why should America try to be more like countries that are worse in nearly every way? Europe has been declining under the weight of its antiquated institutions, economic fatigue, moral anemia and cultural surrender. Yet American politicians, technocrats, academics, and pundits argue, with increasing popularity, that Americans should look across the Atlantic for solutions to the nation's problems, including on issues like health care, the welfare state, immigration, and a bloated bureaucracy.
In Eurotrash, David Harsanyi argues we are looking in the wrong place. By every economic and societal measure, the United States is more tolerant than Europe. It is more welcoming of immigrants, but also far more successful at assimilating them. Minorities do far better in United States. Our economy is dominant. Only one European company appears in top 10 corporate powerhouses in the world and only seven in the top 50.
Americans make up nearly half of the list. Americans are far more charitable and happier than Europeans. Our slightly lower life expectancy and our slightly higher infant mortality rate are not a result of substandard care, but a statistical misunderstanding based on the fact we treat every life as one worth saving. In this biting, fast-moving, and well-researched polemic, Harsanyi debunks prevailing notions about European supremacy and makes an unapologetic case for American exceptionalism, offering insight and reasoned arguments to counter current policy prescriptions.
In this unapologetic defense of American values, you'll discover the truth behind the myths: The Myth of European Supremacy: Hard data that reveals why America's economy is dominant, why its people are more charitable, and why European success stories are wildly overstated. A Flawed Healthcare Comparison: An incisive look at why metrics like life expectancy and infant mortality are statistical misunderstandings, not proof of substandard American care.
The Assimilation Advantage: A sharp analysis of why the American model is far more successful at welcoming and assimilating immigrants than Europe's fractured and failing multicultural approach. The Failing European Social Model: A takedown of the top-heavy institutions, overregulation, and bloated bureaucracy that have led to Europe's economic fatigue and cultural surrender.
