The a16z Show · Marc Andreessen on Evaluating Founders and AI's Consumer Surplus · 30 Mar 2026 podcast

The debate about inequality always is, would you rather live in a society that has a faster level of aggregate growth and a generally rising standards of living across the board, but with greater inequality?

Or would you le rather live in a society which has lower standard of living, lower growth, or maybe even no growth or declining growth?

in which things are more equal.

And like I said, like I look, I I have a lot of European friends who say, like, look, Mark, you don't understand.

Like for a normal person, living in Spain is like much better than living in the US because like the baseline is just like much more secure.

And I and I I I buy that.

And I think that's probably true.

Having said that, like if you want the country that is going to go to the moon um and build AI and all the rest of the stuff that is happening here, of course you're going to have a dispersion of outcomes.

I I think if you look at the economic growth rate itself,

It actually tells you a lot, just as an example.

There are a bunch of European countries now that are either, you know, flat or shrinking.

Yeah, so I would say I am a tremendously, tremendously pro European.

I I am like pro European to my very core.

Like I'm an Anglophile and a Francophile and a you know Germanophile.

I I love all these countries, I love all these people.

Uh I I think it's absolutely, you know, the the every country in Europe I think has made like fundamental contributions to civilization.

I think the human capital in Europe is just like absolutely amazing.

You'll hate what I'm about to say, but uh I w one of my things in the firm is I say we we should back every single European

European founder who moves to the US, like we should just reflexively say yes.

I hundred percent agree with that.
