But grandparent's assertion that Europeans should leave everything behind and hop over the pond for more money isn't rude and ignorant?

  I do see your point that it could sound like “everyone wants out,” but FWIW to me it didn’t come across that way. I read the GP as asking “how will the EU stop the people leaving when they prefer to work elsewhere,” which implies that most people are moving for personal preference reasons rather than jobs. I doubt that is the case - I suspect that most humans would prefer to have both an elite job and their family relatively nearby, thus keeping talent locally is pretty easy if you have elite jobs to offer. But since the GP didn’t elaborate on why they think people are leaving it’s difficult to argue about the posters intentions.
