I'm a progressive socialist and it worries me. I don't want to live in a country like that. I want a good welfare/health system, strong LGBT rights etc. My own country the Netherlands became neoliberal (hard capitalist) right at first and now radical right. I wouldn't want to live there anymore and luckily I don't. But it's annoying to have to emigrate all the time. Especially because I can't even vote in the countries I live in and it takes 10 years to change nationality.
I've always thought I might end up living in New Zealand eventually because I think it's the most beautiful country in the world and I really respect how they protect the beautiful nature they have. It would be an amazing place to retire, going on long hikes through their beautiful environment.
