I suppose it is some what opinion?  I grew up in the US.  Moved a few years to Europe and came back to US. Ir changed my political beliefs a good chunk.

Is it opinion? I’m pretty sure there are no socialist countries nor purely capitalist countries in the EU/OECD, they are all mixed economies that vary in the size/scope of their safety nets & regulations.

Which European countries? And what specifically about them seemed worse?

How many did I visit while living in Europe?  A whole bunch.  Scotland, Germany, Austria, croatia, Switzerland, UK, Ireland, Italy, France, Denmark, Sweden, Norway.  Probably a few others.

Standard of living.  Wages for high earners.  Overall affluency.  Innovation.  STEM programs.

Granted Europeans tend to be happier, easier going and healthier.  More family oriented. 

Edit

Sweden and Germany were outliers.  I found both quite innovative.
