Because American propaganda portrays all other countries, Europe included, as totalitarian Nazi style dictatorships, overrun with nothing but widespread homelessness, extreme poverty, no food, no clothing, and no shelter.
Ironic that what the US narrative portrays is dangerously close to what the US are actually becoming...

The U.S is already an idiocracy = government run by idiots.
Only thing good about America is making top money. The dollar still holds weight in world reserve currency despite the Saudis, Japanese, Chinese,
and Russians selling their U.S Bonds.

You're still making good money in the US...yet what good is that when you have to deal with rampant inflation? I am still in touch with @eurobrat, one of the cool veterans in here. For a few years now he has had a fantastic job as an IT consultant, making way above 6 figures a year, and yet he would lament his salary would only get him so far, when he has to pay $15 for a beer or a sandwich!

That's why you make your dollar in the U.S and move abroad to your place.. Manila Philippines.
Better yet, if you set up a brokerage account in the U.S and invest your money there, get 10% to 15% annual returns, get dividends and move your ass to Philippines than you get to live like a king there. Of course.. in the U.S you have to live like a goddamned monk, live in a RC, don't pay rent(rent eats up 1/3-2/3 of your monthly income), work in IT in Bay area and steal everything you need in California or Commiefornia( nobody can stop you) then your all set. Why buy when you can legally steal in california?
