All About McCain - Page 101

Are there any other countries that are relatively warm and have a better political system and general standard of living than the U.S.? I'm really wanting some alternatives right about now.

I have been loathe to move away from my wonderful network of friends, but if it can work for Gemini Cricket ... I can somehow make it work for me. I want OUT of the United States, and I want to renounce my citizenship. Ugh, I need to take a shower every ten minutes in this country.

Please let's just have the election tomorrow.

Any chance of putting that picture in spoiler tags so it doesn't force horizontal scroll?

Thank you, Sen. McCain, for not choosing Mitt Romney as your running mate.

His financial expertise would have made you look better during this crisis. Instead, your running mate is making you look worse.

The grass is always greener...

Or maybe that would be a good thing

The problem with immigrating to another country is their immigration laws (yes, other countries actually enforce them). Also, a lot of countries give job preference to those who have citizenship/born there, so unless you have a specialty that is in high demand there you may find yourself without sustainable income.

Trust me. The snow of Nova Scotia seems really tempting sometimes...

but the job availability of a small fishing town is not good.

New Zealand's got no employment requirement.

A New Zealander expat I know says that NZ govt is becoming more and more like US repub govt. I was talking about moving there to get away from here as well.
