Imagine the number of homeless people who could be housed with the King’s latest fancy…

    FYI. Harder to do that now than ever. Good job getting out when you did. But it’s not like Americans have good options. Most don’t have enough to pay rent let alone emigrate.

      Yeah it’s not for everybody: you have to have the means, have the guts to make the jump and not hold any hope for America. Most people lack at least one of those necessary criteria. But if you can do it, it’s a good option: life is much better outside the USA. Trust me on that one.

        Oh I agree. I’m a citizen. But traveled a lot for work between 2005 - 2015. The second you experience what Healthcare is like outside the US it radicalizes you. And that’s if the thousands of other tiny and much better experiences don’t enlighten you to how backwards the US is. Tipping alone is so unnecessary.

        Also, those 3 criteria are solid. Certainly my experience as well. The only difference being my personal optics. (In that I’m waiting to see what gets built on the ashes of Trump before leaving) So I guess I have molecules of hope? Eitherway, you have solid advice!
