If You Leave the U.S. Permanently, Where Should You Go?
Daily Reckoning ^ | 12/09/11 | Gary Gibson

You see, people are fed up. Not just with economic conditions. But with the political ones. We suspect that that frustration is tinged with fear. We know it is in our case.

The state is growing outright despotic…tyrannical. You have congressmen who make no bones about telling us that we should all be subject to arrest and detention by the military. This at a time when the definition of “terrorism” is expanding to include any activity that annoys the political class.

The government has been in the business of prohibiting personal behaviors, regulating

professional ones and eating out our substance since the beginning. It’s all only gotten worse over time.

But now the state is showing its true face. And it’s so horrible that many of us feel compelled to flee for our lives.

The whole mask and lockdown stuff is a pretty good indicator of whether a country is bad or not.

When Biden opens the border, Texas will look like Mexico in a couple of years. The border towns and cities already look like Mexico. The gangs are taking over and the healthcare and schools are overrun.

We are doomed.

While I have also lost faith in SCOTUS over their inaction prior to this election, the law and constitution are clear.

They're not just clear, they're crystal clear.

And when they're shrugged off again by men and women of insufficient character, what do you propose?

Wait another four years in the hope that it will be fixed?

Misdirection.

It was about 20 years ago when I made this account and I lived... in Arkansas. LOL.

I’ve been considering it for a few months, and I remind people who say they were born here and their ancestors fought for this country (so did mine) that at some point our ancestors also decided they could no longer stay in the ancestral home place. Most left for economic opportunity, sure, but many were also persecuted.

My current front runner is Portugal, with Belize second.

I’m starting to look into lower cost-of-living, offshore locations for retirement, with decent healthcare and friendly to Americans.

But, I dislike the idea of leaving my family behind.

I'm heading to China.

Would rather live in a real communist country than one which is masquerading as a democracy.

At least in China, the people know not to believe the mainstream media.

I wont leave the US so to speak. But, in a few years I will be moving to America. We’re currently looking at properties in West Virginia and Kentucky.

No joke...

Mein Deutsch ist besser als mein Französisch.

During my travels I found Geneva to be more picturesque but a demonstration about something at the train station when I arrived in the city was a bit of a turn-off. I could live in Zürich.

I would emigrate to China and work for my new overlords directly. I would the marry a rich Chinese woman considered too old for marriage by Chinese men. I would spend my time beating the shit out soy boy tourists with beards on the cockholsters when I overhear them talk about intersectionality and white privilege.

Kidding about everything except the soy boys. They need repeated servings of boot salad.

Forget Texas. Sorry to burst your bubble, but there is no place to move. None. It’s over.

Texas is probably the last place on planet Earth to attempt to survive the upcoming Great Reset, but it’s just a matter of time. Keep in mind that 30 million new Democrat voters will be created with a single stroke of legislation legalizing virtually anyone currently in the US, not just DACA, and SCOTUS won’t save us. That alone will dwarf both Texas and Florida’s votes. A Democrat will win the governor of Texas in 2022, Cruz will be gone in 2024 along with most House seats, and 2026 will complete the absolute Californication of Texas along with the rest of the country.

Holdouts? Good luck with that. Jade Helm (search for that) is the last major operation that will round up all the patriots for elimination. If we can’t even fix a blatantly illegal election, what makes you think that we’ll resist the coming Anschluss?

My Dad was a Purple Heart recipient. Fought the Battle of the Bulge. Glad he’s in a better place and doesn’t have to see the end of the republic he fought for. I wonder how most active military and all veterans are seeing this. I’d like to think they’re with us.

Malta? A pro-life country with low-ish taxes. And most people speak English.
