America is a shithole. I got out in '17 and my quality of life has improved tenfold.

Out of curiosity, where from? America is huge and some places are shittier than others.

Feel free to not answer because this is identifiable info. However, how did you emigrate? Where to? Did you have a family with you or just yourself?

Admittedly, while I think America is a shit hole as well, It's got to get pretty bad before I'll be able to convince my wife. However, I'm trying to plan out our escape plan.
