Maybe consider saving enough money in order to buy a property over there before moving, that will greatly help you. Other than that, just move there.

If you do that, your cost of living will be lower and in Canada you will have access to good healthcare, education and maybe to enjoy things again which doesn't imply monetary property. I'm pretty sure that overall, you'll have happier and more educated kids. I can imagine the kind of monsters people grow in the USA.

I live in Germany and we have many points like Canada and I just laugh when I hear about "could make more money elsewhere" or "career" in America when life is much softer and nicer here. Sure, things aren't perfect here, but at least people in general care about the environment and the personal space of others, I can easily get a lot of vegetarian/vegan food in Berlin and people are just awesome, many of them, from the US and sick of the state of art country you've got there. If you don't care about this and is a psycho which just want to maximize how much you make and then die, just stay in the US. It is a good place for you to be.

If I had the chance to pick living in the USA or in a first developed country, somewhat decent living conditions and economy. I would definitely pick the second choice.

I seriously wouldn't feel like living in a the same country of Trump, or just the average american mindset. It just looks pretty retarded to me. It's a economy that only exists because it manages to really impose its power around the world, so americans there feel like they got something, but it's always in exchange of somebodys life or happiness. I'm not sure if I would like to tell my kids I'm this kind of person, or my family. I wouldn't feel happy for myself.

But that's just me. Make your choice, but remember, life isn't your salary or your job position.

Huh, kinda harsh there on your judgement of the way of life of 300+ million people, most of whom don't actively seek it or have any reasonable say in it

Still, giving you the benefit of interpreting your point as friendly as I can, I can't help but state that your economical advantage there on one of the richest countries in the world also only exists because it is imposed on others around the world

Never said that here is perfect. The supposition is the following:

- He can move somewhere if he wants(he got the choice, unlike many). - Country is bad, creates a bad impact in the world than the other country. Also can enjoy as a individual a better quality of life. - Why stay?

I travel frequently to the US(lately, roughly every year) and that is my observation. Every year I go, my typical restaurants look more cheap and the people more decadent and I'm quite young, so I saw that change since I visited it for the first time, around 20 years ago.

I find it very hard to believe that anything about the american way of doing things(let it be culture or business) is sustainable. The US will probably undergo in some crisis and change, but I wouldn't like to be exactly there and experience it :-)

I was born in a third-world country and at least recently, I've been quite amused at how many things my country started to do much better than the US and some areas look as good as they do in the US, meanwhile I haven't seen anything getting better in the last decade... Have you tried using a bank in the US?

I bet that there is a country in Africa that has a better and faster banking system than in the US.

Maybe if you share another opinion, you could share it as well.

Damn dude. Maybe brainwashed a little by media ? And US is a continent, people change a lot inside.

Also, what do you think of the male immigrant importation ? Will their happiness be taken from yours (or your daughter's) ? Is it better to give your happiness or take others (if you had a choice) ?

Note: neither in USA or Germany.

> Brainwashed by the media > Thinks the US is a continent

You know that Canada and Mexico are not part of the US right?
