Europol's function is basically just coordination of the police forces in EU countries. It's not even close to a federal police force.

Europol budget is 1/80 of FBI's

FBI's budget should have been 1/80 of FBI's too -- the US has 25% of the world's prison population, with just 4% of the world's population.

The FBI isn't a large part of the reason the US has so many people in jail & prison. Mandatory minimum sentencing laws are about 3/4 of the cause, along with treating drug addiction as a crime instead of as strictly a health concern is most of the rest of that (with all of it broadly falling under the war on drugs). The get-tough-on-crime (by putting everyone in prison) era, during the Reagan / Bush / Clinton years, is the root.

The FBI is only a small part of the US criminal justice system. 90% of US prisoners are held in state or local prison, not federal ones.

Do you think the FBI is really driving incarceration? Federal prisoners are only ~10% of the US prison population and tend to be convicted of more serious crimes.

Wow, they are doing such a great job obviously! /s

And what does Europol does anyway? Are they actively involved in high profile investigations?

FBI uses it's budget to spy on its own citizens (Prism) and interfere with political process. The budget is supposed to be small.
