My parents immigrated with my sister and I in 1988. My sister returned to Europe 3 years ago. Now my parents & I are as well in the next 3 years. They will sell their home 5 minutes away from the beach and retire in Europe. USA is not the place for Whites unless you are wealthy.
Please do not tell me your just listed Arizona as one of the open minded states, there government is probably the most conservative and radical in the country.
Arizona just seems affordable, sunny and dry (preferable over Florida). I'm not sure yet how much things like mentality or open-carry would annoy me, I'm guessing it matters less in cities. I just wouldn't rule it out without some practical knowledge.
If Lawrence Krauss can live there, just like many space racketeers can live in Texas, maybe there are niches for people like me to be just fine.
Funny how Vikingen simply answers the question and gives his honest opinion, he is jumped on for not giving the "right" answer. Since he didn't give the "right" answer it must mean he isn't really European, that he is buying into propaganda or that he hasn't traveled anywhere. Is that what being "open-minded" and "tolerant" of different opinions and ideas means?
I would never want to live in the US because I'd get sent to prison for being an atheist. Also, there is no public transportation anywhere and since I don't have a driver's license, I'd be locked in the house all day. I don't want to end up clinically obese like 85% of the American population but what can you expect when supermarkets in the US don't even sell fresh fruits or vegetables. When I do get obese, I won't be able to pay for my private health insurance (since I'm not a millionaire) so I'll probably be left to die on the street. No thanks

I guess this is a joke You would go in prison for smoking pot actually unless you move to Colorado or I think also DC. And New York has, as far as I heard, better transportation system than London. There are also many bicycle friendly cities there It's a very diverse federation of states and counties

She listed off countries that have wide open spaces. You agree, yet refute her at the same time? Before hitting the reply button, make sure you know what you're typing....

You do realize that unlike some countries in Europe, by law there's separation of Church and State in the US, so therefore the State couldn't send anyone to jail for their beliefs or lack thereof? I've been an atheist all my life, as have all my friends and neighbors, and most of my relatives, and we'll still enjoying our freedom.
I didn't have a driver's license most of my adult life, but I was never locked inside the house. Far from it. Public transportation is the only rational way to go in a world of dwindling resources and global warming.
I still don't know where all these obese people I keep reading about on C-D are living. I rarely see any. Under about 55 years of age, I never see any.
Private health insurance (meaning: that people pay for themselves) is very quickly becoming a thing of the past, thanks to Obama.
No fresh fruits and vegetables? OK, this is starting to sound like the Soviet channel.
