Let's be honest here. Entrepreneurs are not welcomed anywhere, but your home country, if that (several countries are terrible to start businesses in, like India, Australia, etc). I could talk about this at length, but just wanted to say that this is a trite and dismissive comment you have made without any experience or understanding of the issues at hand. You think people like the author and myself haven't considered this?

> your home country, if that I can vouch for this: I'm a white male with no physical disabilities or impairments, as an entrepreneur (and employee) I am not welcome in my home country [1]. In this climate many have "resigned to their fate" which means there is a somewhat substantial amount of South African expatriates. This has resulted in us not being welcome in the 1st world countries that we assume our hard work will be appreciated in.
