I've often thought this as well as we basically are just making marginal advancements at this point in things like computing power (hey, let's shrink this some more or add more cores). The nuclear power industry is a sinking ship (wind, solar, and storage won't be enough), and we lose more freedoms every year.
However...where else would you go? A Nordic country? Switzerland? I think you would want some place high on the freedom list that has a good economy and also a strong enough military to not have to worry about getting steamrolled. I don't think there are too many that meet that list.
- scottlocklin 8y agoIf you're serious about leaving, you have to war game it out in your head for what your personal future looks like in the US versus somewhere else; depends on what you do for money, what your net worth is, what kind of freedoms are important to you, whether or not you have a family to worry about and so on. What's the worst thing that could happen in country X,Y,Z; what is the median outcome, etc. It's a simple calculation for me and lots of places work. Switzerland is hard to beat as far as long term stability goes, but one of the reasons it is hard to beat is they don't just let anybody in.
- 4thaccount 8y agoYea, I've thought about living in another country before for various reasons including adventure, but once you start a family a lot of stuff gets complicated fast. Yea...a little weird as an American citizen, I have trouble comprehending places which basically don't ever let you become a citizen.
