Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

The EU would be mentally challenged if they weren't already drafting a massive investment in STEM, and fast tracking American immigration.

Brain draining America of as many STEM professionals as possible is the best way to neuter the fascist dictatorship, boost domestic economies, and prevent adversaries like China scooping them up.

America is only a super power because the majority of Europes academics migrated between 1930 and 1950. They wouldn't have succeeded with nuclear weapons or won the space race without them (especially Nazi rocket scientists).

There are several European countries I would move to for work. The job industry there is something I am unsure of though. Specifically, it seems that the aerospace industry is not as lucrative. I do not want to be right about that. I know airbus is an option but I would like to be in the defense aerospace industry. I think that would be difficult without citizenship. With big daddy T in office I don’t think it would be difficult to get people to move in general though.

Some of the biggest hurdles I see are the double income tax and the fact that many Americans are used to a 30yr fixed rate mortgage which is profoundly not a thing in the rest of the world.
