...your right, I live in the past but in the past America was a better place except for a few things. It don't matter cause it's never going to go back to the way it was an "worse" seems to be the accepted standard.

You're living in the past. It's been a long time since there was no better place to live.

Why don't *I* move to a different country? Because most of the good ones don't want Americans. I don't want to learn a foreign language or a new culture... might not even be capable of it. I don't want to be the unwanted alien in someone else's nation. I don't want to run the high risk that the U.S. will bar me from returning to see family and friends, letting them come see me, or conduct business. And I don't want to be saddled with dual taxes since the U.S. forces those who surrender their citizenship to continue paying American taxes for a decade or longer.

Leaving the country ain't easy, ribit. But that doesn't mean it's a great place. Remove the barriers and I would prefer Canada, Chili, Panama, Portugal and Costa Rica. If I put some effort into it, I expect I'd find others.

Our nation is in decline. It's a trend that is going to worsen, not improve. I'd far rather be in a nation where the future is bright.
