Make it "cool" to take risks in the EU. Currently, it's not viewed positively, and many consider it "irresponsible" to start and build startups.Boost by 10-100x the media, news &amp; TV coverage of successful founders.

Switching the clocks for summer and winter messes with people more than you might think. Here’s why it can be a real pain:1. It Throws Off Your Body ClockOur bodies have a natural rhythm (kind of like an internal clock) that tells us when to sleep and wake up. Changing the time, even by just an hour, confuses this rhythm. Suddenly, you’re supposed to wake up when your body still thinks it’s sleep time.2. You Lose SleepWhen we “spring forward” in March, we lose an hour of sleep. Even that tiny change can leave you feeling groggy and out of it for days. And catching up on sleep isn’t as easy as it sounds.3. It Can Affect Your HealthThe time change can lead to real health problems. Right after the switch, there are more heart attacks, more strokes, and people report feeling more anxious or irritable. It’s like your body rebels against the sudden shift.4. You’re Less FocusedFeeling tired means you’re more likely to lose focus at work or school. It can make you forgetful, cranky, and just not at your best.5. More Accidents HappenAfter the time change, there are more car accidents and workplace mishaps. People are just more tired and less alert.6. Kids Have It TougherKids and teens often struggle even more to adjust. It can mess with their sleep schedule, school performance, and mood.7. It Doesn’t Even Save Much EnergyOne of the original reasons for changing the clocks was to save energy by using more daylight. But modern research shows the savings are so tiny that it hardly makes a difference.In short, changing the clocks messes with sleep, health, and focus, and many people think it’s more trouble than it’s worth.

Implementing a strategic bitcoin reserve in the European Union could offer several advantages:Diversification of Assets: Bitcoin, often referred to as 'digital gold,' provides a hedge against inflation and currency devaluation. By diversifying its reserve assets beyond traditional currencies and commodities like gold, the EU could safeguard its financial stability against economic downturns or fluctuations in conventional markets.Innovation Leadership: By adopting a strategic bitcoin reserve, the EU would position itself at the forefront of financial innovation. This move could enhance the EU's image as a leader in embracing new technologies, potentially attracting more blockchain and crypto enterprises to set up shop within its borders, boosting the economy, and fostering job creation in tech sectors.Geopolitical Influence: As countries like the United States and China consider or implement their own bitcoin reserves, the EU could risk falling behind in global financial policy if it does not act. A strategic reserve could serve as a statement of the EU's commitment to maintaining relevance and influence in the rapidly evolving digital economy.Strengthening the Euro: Holding bitcoin might stabilize or even enhance the euro's value in international markets, especially if bitcoin's value continues to appreciate. This could potentially lead to a stronger position for the euro in global trade and finance.Hedge Against Monetary Policy Risks: With central banks worldwide grappling with inflation and other monetary policy challenges, bitcoin's fixed supply could serve as a counterbalance to potential policy missteps or unforeseen economic shocks, offering a buffer to European economies.Encouraging Blockchain Development: A formal recognition of bitcoin through a reserve could accelerate the adoption and development of blockchain technology within the EU, promoting better regulations, security standards, and use cases for digital assets across various sectors.In summary, a strategic bitcoin reserve could not only diversify and potentially strengthen the EU's financial reserves but also signal its readiness to adapt to and lead in the new digital financial landscape.

For example by cutting taxes severely to families with 3+ kids

Encourage births

These two taxes are not only immoral, but they require digital business owners to valuate assets like the apps and brands they have built. And your valuation will probably be questioned in the future by the government, and you always risk going to jail for tax evasion. Quantifying wealth when it consists on digital assets is increasingly difficult. Taxes based on revenue, like corporate tax or personal income tax, make more senses

Ban Exit Tax and Wealth Tax

Planned

New European businesses should receive a discount of 0% corporate tax for the first 3 years, allowing them to focus on innovation without the pressure of financial strain. This also makes Europe instantly one of the most attractive places in the world to start a business.

Tax discount during startup phase

Europe should change its tax policy on stock options to tax them only when sold, not when exercised, so that it can compete globally in attracting top talent and entrepreneurs. Taxing stock options at the point of exercise creates significant financial pressure for employees and founders, who may not have liquid assets to cover the tax. This discourages risk-taking, limits the appeal of startup equity, and ultimately stifles innovation.Aligning taxation with when gains are realized (at the point of sale) would better reflect actual income, reduce financial risk, and level the playing field with countries like the US, which already implement such policies. This reform would means Europe can attract the top talent in Europe and worldwide to launch and join startups in Europe.

Tax stock options when sold, not when exercised

To ensure the long-term prosperity of the Europe, Europe should teach tech, coding, and AI in all schools and universities. By equipping the next generation with these skills, Europe can secure its place as a global leader in innovation.

Teach AI and tech in European schools and universities

Europe must modernize its punitive bankruptcy laws, which discourage risk-taking. By prioritizing restructuring over liquidation and protecting entrepreneurs’ personal assets, it can foster a culture of innovation and give failed startups and their founders a second chance to thrive.

Reform bankruptcy laws to empower entrepreneurs

Europe should reduce the regulatory burden for businesses, streamlining the process of starting and growing companies, and encouraging innovation. By exempting businesses with annual revenues below €10 million from complex regulations like VATMOSS, GDPR, and the EU AI Act, we empower entrepreneurs to focus on creating great products and reaching market success without being weighed down by compliance.

Reduce regulatory burden for startups in Europe

Europe should create a single, EU-wide business entity that eliminates the complexity of dealing with 27 different company registration requirements. Starting a business should be as easy as clicking a button online, without needing physical offices, notaries, or lawyers.Update: This is now being worked on at <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="link" href="http://eu-inc.org">eu-inc.org</a>

European Inc: a single pan-European business entity

Europe should see tech and AI not as enemies but as crucial for its survival. While Europe currently lags behind, it can turn the tide by fostering an environment that encourages innovation rather than stifling it with premature regulation. AI can revolutionize industries like healthcare, education, manufacturing, agriculture, energy and of course software, and Europe needs to be at the forefront of this change.
