To me the article reads as a complaint that the legal and tax structures of employee stock and options compensation in Europe make such compensation rare.

It doesn't present numerical data on how rare it is though, I'd like to see data on this.

You can use existing information, especially that you are on this site you should know where to look.

Even ignoring this, how many successful European startups did you hear about? How many from US? Just rough numbers, are they anywhere equal or for each European one you have dozen or more in US?
