I left N.America to live in Asia when the Iraq war started…would you consider doing the same?
Post date: December 31st, 2008The Iraq war, cheap entertainment, celebrity worship, pop stars, fear mongering…alot of reasons, but Politics and cheap culture were at the forefront.

I would definately consider…

Not as long as we have freedoms in America. This is THE best country in the world. I can't think of anywhere else I would want to live. Maybe another state, a less blue one, but I wouldn't leave here unless Communism or some other equally abhorent system took root.

I live in the states and do not always agree with what the government does or does not do but I would never think of living someplace else.
