Nobody got to America by bending over and taking it... except maybe Bronco Bama.
Neighbor killing violence is for Europeans that run out their options.
History will label our angry people, who voted with their feet, The UHaul generation!

Great insight, Dave! This is indeed, a key virtue of American society, the freedom/flexibility to MOVE to live in a place of our choice. In Europe, the countries are so small comparatively -- the language barriers too deep -- so it's not so easy to break the bond of a particular town/city or employer.
This physical mobility is great for escaping the high tax states of CA, NY, IL, PA, MA etc. But escaping federal mismanagement is much harder -- unless you've got a weapon like President Trump working for you!
