75. It's hard to move to another country. It'll be harder if this country tanks.

If the USA is reduced to third world status, then there will be plenty of folks like you trying to find greener pastures. It'll probably get so bad that they'll start treating American immigrants the same way our country treats Mexicans now.

There really is no where to run. It doesn't even look like there is any way to make things better here. So many of our citizens have decided they would rather feed their minds with the comfortable lies of talk radio, right wing cable news, and right wing psuedo-news sites. Oh, don't forget the right wing preaching they inject into their brains on Sundays. We are outnumbered, out funded, and drowned out in a torrent of propaganda.

It's sad really. I'm still fairly young, so there's little chance that our collapse will occur after I shuffle off this mortal coil. It's crushing to see a civilization with so much potential for good crumble under the weight of its own greed, bigotry, and ignorance.

No, I'm not moving anywhere. There's really no where to go.
