Same here. The wife and I's careers are doing well, investments doing well. Money in the bank. Our home of 20 plus years value had gone up enough where we decided to take advantage of the low interest rates and move out of the city. Sold it, bought another double the size on two acres...in the middle of a pandemic. Splurged a couple of years ago and bought a new truck, bought a new ATV this summer. Yeah, things are good.

No.

Actually you wouldn't.

So? The Left doesn't believe in borders. Nothing stopping you from entering a country illegally. Or, are you just afraid that if you sneak into a communist country, like North Korea, that you will be imprisoned or killed for doing so instead of just sent back? Well hey, you should be okay with that since you're the one who wants communism.

Communism is so great people cross shark infested waters in inner tubes to escape. It’s so wonderful that they risk getting shot at to escape. They go to work camps if they ever dare criticize the government. They live in fear of the secret police. They are told where they will live, whom they will live with, and what job they must do.

The most recent experiment in Venezuela is turning out beautifully! (/sarcasm) ....

Venezuela has the world’s highest murder rate and crime of all sorts is out of control. They have no medications. A packet of McDonald’s fries costs $130 and some of the “potato†is actually wood chip.

OP, you have been brainwashed by the media in this country. I will join others in asking you, what is so bad that you would say something as ridiculous as this?

Even during the worst of the pandemic, I could always find food and supplies, and now my children are back in school and husband is working.

I don't think you understand what Communism is.

If you are so miserable, move now, why wait?

So where are you moving to? I'm sick of people saying this or that if Trump wins - you deal with it - it's 4 more years and then maybe you'll find a decent candidate to run next time - but you guys never learned the first go round.

What, precisely do you think will happen?

Please explain.


So far in 3.5 years we've a pretty good go of it:

- Record economy
- Record employment
- improved trade deals
- No wars, troops coming home
- dead terrorists
- improved military
- improved border security
- no more giving Iran 150 billion


I mean, other than the global pandemic that has dampened the economy, what has been so bad for you? Surely you can't mean you'd rather live like the Soviet Union, Cuba, or China? If so, you need to have your head examined. I think you're just being dramatic.
