      If you can find somewhere I can go, and take my mother who is a full time wheelchair user, I’ll do it. I’ll pack my shit and move today. It’s just not feasible. The American education system means I wasn’t able to go to college until my 30s, and I’m only half way through a bachelor’s. Don’t nobody want us.

      Even if they leave, they still have to pay a percentage of their earnings to the US government in taxes each year. Regardless of the country they’re in, or if they ever plan on returning.

      Only way out is to rescind citizenship I think

      Thats just mainly the terminally online. Most don’t hate America. A few issues to be sure, but those can be fixed.
