It’s the surest way to access European-like benefits for the lower class, in the US. Housing (for your family, too), healthcare (ditto), retirement, free education, paid vacation (if not much of it). Pretty good schools for your kids, mostly.
But in most of the rest of the OECD, like Britain? Yeah, not sure.
- poisonborz 3y agoInstead maybe simply emigrate to Europe?
- Aloha 3y agoHow on earth do you think immigrating anywhere is an easy process?
- poisonborz 3y agoEasier than subjecting yourself to an abusive, aggressive, nationalistic organization with its own laws, that may take you to a battlefield. I had known many who made the US-EU jump, it didn't sounded particularly hard (the administrative part)
- wharvle 3y agoAs someone with a high school diploma and nothing else, and zero cash in the bank? Those are the folks to whom enlisting is appealing (in the US, at least). Not college grads in hot, in-demand fields with at least five figures liquid and ready to spend on immigration expenses.
- Aloha 3y agoI'm in the same boat as you are more or less - just have cash in the bank - beyond that everything I do is based on North American standards - much of it does not directly translate to Europe - if I wanted to remain employable, Canada or Australia is where I would have to go, as in my industry they're closer to the US technically.
