This and other comments along with lack of work hours are the main social reasons why the EU has fallen so far behind. I fear if this isn't corrected soon the EU will become completely irrelevant in the not to distant future. What were mountains in the 50s-90s are molehills today

In any case they aren't competing on EUV but on packaging and xray(which probably won't work without new science as it's been done to death) so your comment is moot.
