The EU actions against MS are in the same league as AirBus Subsidies. EU cannot compete with the US. Regardless from whom the acquisitions come from (US companies), the EU is using this case as a means to counter US supremacy.
The fact that the EU laws do nothing to help competition or benefit EU citizens is of no concern. Fines of this sort are the only way the EU can pay for the social burden of ~10+% unemployment because their policies don't produce EU jobs.
Instead, the US is once again paying for ”enlightened” social policies of Europe.
