“I just don’t see any future here. There isn’t going to be any future in this country for the next 20 years, everything is going backwards,”

Anyone thinking about leaving the US should check into the immigration policies of the host country. Very few allow foreigners to become gainfully employed. Also, the US is stopping capital at the border. There is now fees (30%) in place just in case you may be trying to dodge your tax liability.
As always, America is the world’s last best hope for freedom.

Ahhh, but those laws (controlling/limiting/taxing the passage of cash across America's borders into foreign countries) were (allegedly) put there to combat the drug trade and terrorism. It was never expected that the majority of all people who are stopped at the border and fined and/or jailed for not declaring every last cent they had on them would be "regular" Americans simply trying to rescue their hard-earned savings from expropriation via exorbitant tax rates. Rather, that was an unintended - but very pleasant - side-effect.

As always, America is the world’s last best hope for freedom.

The U.S. is still undoubtedly freer than most other countries - but, for Heaven's sake, I wish Uncle Sam would respect my privacy and keep the !*#X! out of my pocketbook.

Regards,
