It would be more interesting to me to find out people who would actually quit/leave vs saying they will. I'd bet in actuality it's quite a small number that would follow through and certainly not an exodus. A lot of people always say they will do X, but don't actually do it when it comes down to it because it would inconvenience them or burden them too much to actually follow through. Both quit our jobs? Do we have enough saved to do that? Sell the house? Pull the kids out of school away from the only friends they've known? Find new daycare that we trust? Move away from family, extended family and everything you know? Find a new house? Find 2 new jobs making as much as we were? Finding a new city in a new state that we like and feel like we fit in? That's a lot harder to actually do than say "I'd move."
