Provide a single example of a country in Europe with any of those mottos in any public space or on any currency.

Again, pablum. What source do you have for that assertion? Freedom House, which leans left, puts the United States at about 21. The Heritage Foundation, on the center right, puts the US at 12. The Cato Institute, which is far right, puts it at 20. All three sources put the same countries--mainly European but also including Australia, Canada and New Zealand--above the United States for freedom. So experts across the political spectrum unanimously feel that the countries you just denigrated are substantially freer than the United States
So what is it that all these entities, right and left, are missing? What are your data and what is your methodology?

You seriously don't understand that math and science are the key to economic, military, and geopolitical might?
That's unfortunate.
