What is your reasoning for coming to the US? You might want
to rethink this as America is collapsing. America will be
vastly different in 10 years and not a great a place to be.
The amount of corruption in the government and the amount of
vitriol that people have for each other are astonishing...
and it is only getting worse.
Actually, Slovakia (SK) and Czechia (CZ) are two most
corrupted countries in the EU. We are paying huge taxes and
getting nothing in back.
If you are moving to settle down that it would be a bad
decision IMO. If it is just temporary thing for a few years
thing it might be ok depending on you end up.
I wanna try to live in the US for a few years and then decide
if I should leave or settle down.
Do you mind me asking why you are leaving Czech? I hear there
are a lot of pretty females there ;) Is it simply business or
is it the country itself? To be honest, I couldn't imagine it
being as bad as the US but I do not know much about it. To be
honest, I'm curious as to what it is like over there because
I plan on moving out of the US at some point and I'm looking
for countries that are a bit more stable and not on the
decline.
Actually, CZ is rising up and getting better, but in business
area and salaries it's still worse than in the US.
Some places in EU are not safe yet. A lot of immigrants are
going there from war zones. They are like groups of anarchists
destroying everything, stealing, raping and not respecting the
laws.
Salary... In US you get $100,000/year as a senior developer or
something like that, right?
There it's only like $30,000/year. But the price of stuff like
cars, grocery and everything what you can buy on amazon,
e-bay, etc. is the same.
The concept of a money in US seems to be different than in SK.
There it's more about survive than enjoying life.
People in US seems to be little more opened to strangers than
here.
That's the reasons why I want to leave.
BTW: What's wrong with the US?
Um, it's the same! You won't escape it if you come to stay.
Just because the shit hasn't hit the fan yet does not mean it's
not coming down the pipe. There are many here that seem to
believe that ignorance is bliss, that is true, for a while.
If you looking in the the US news you will see that there is a
major killing happening just about once a week. The politicians
are all crooks, provably, and the CEO's of many of the largest
companies are in cahoots with them. No different than where you
are from. The laws here are so screwed up that law abiding
citizens are routinely killed by cops or cops killed by people
and it all turns out to be a "mistake", or worse, someone's ego.
Again, it sounds like you are experiencing this in your own
country now... so, if that is what you are trying to escape,
you are just moving in to a bigger pond with the same type of
scum. Again, it matters not that some people want to stick
their head in the sand.
Our healthcare system is probably far more screwed up than your
country. There are many Americans who are bankrupt over things
like a broken arm, etc... 100k$ bill for 3 hours of work... and
these insurance companies make billions in profits and it only
goes up.
Wealthy and ignorant people(depending who's party is
president), of course, love to believe that these are isolated
problems and every country has them, etc. Almost 30 years ago
OJ Simpson was big news and cop murder(er)s were very rare.
This is not to say there was no as much corruption, but the
corruption is far different, much more dangerous because there
are many people with big bucks who are extremely evil or
ruthless(can, at the drop of a dime, create a whole can of
worms that takes the country many years to try and fix). So,
what this proves is the world is becoming more dangerous and
more insane. As time goes on the division lines are ingrained
deeper(just as a persons face ages and it's a sign). Everyone
knows this because the world is far more dangerous than it was.
My point is, do you want to be at the center of the economic
nuclear explosion?
The argument is "Oh, the US is great now, so easy to make money
and every one is happy"! Which is only true for those that are
making money and being happy. about 80% of the population is
working their ass of for ever growing corporations. These large
corporations suck the wealth out of these people's work. Proof?
The CEO's tend to make at least 2 orders of magnitude more
income per year per its workers. It's a simple ponzi scheme and
that is the purpose of these businesses(if not when they are
created, at some point down the line when the people who run it
no longer care about the original purpose but simply are their
to make money). Of course, it is great if you are these CEO's
and those around them. But for the worker just trying to make a
living, it's not. You would thing that equal work = equal
pay... and CEO's obviously don't work 2 orders of magnitude
hard than their workers, which, again, proves it is a pyramid
scheme. A real corporation would give everyone who invests in
the company equally an equal share. This would generally limit
everyone's income to approximately the same amount for doing
the same types of things. (So a security guard would not make
the same as the CEO, but they would not be disproportionate).
Of course, the CEO's and their minions lose in this scenario
but everyone else wins.
In any case, you know that type of stuff but the point is that
it is the same in the US but the US is the epicenter. Because
the wheeling and dealing of money by people and companies that
do nothing to help humanity progress not only grows but create
a massive intractable problem. It's like a fat kid who can't
stop eating... at some point the food runs out, and usually
very quickly.
So, we know things are getting worse, we know that the US has
the biggest economy that is both fragile and extremely invested
in the money game where only the people in power benefit. This
means that the people in power will not, under any
circumstances change their ways to give up their power. We see
this in their attitudes and how they behave. It is so rampant
as to be quite astonishing that the largest and most powerful
nation is being run by probably about 80% of it's leaders being
that way. Of course, the bigger they are...
I think it is because these problems have crept up on this
country, most blissfully ignorant. It's like how things are
swept under a rug. Many of the problems of racism and poverty
were ignored, which are now turning in to a cancer(there are
constant race issues going on now and many of the blacks
absolute hate anything not black)... these problems, there is
no hope and will only get worse. These problems will grow like
weeds until they engulf this country. It's probably many
decades off but it will sink the ship alone if something else
doesn't.
One could write many volumes of the problems in the US. Your
country is small so it has smaller problems... the same but
smaller. If you are trying to get away from them, the US is not
the place unless you only plan to stay temporarily. Depending
on your age, if you stay here and things don't work out for you
as well as you hope, you might be in your older age when the US
collapses, and that is a place you don't want to be. The
experiences you will experience will probably be what you can
imagine happening in WWII. If the economy collapses one can
expect mass murder. Many of the impoverished areas will lash
out at everything they hate(as now there is no order and no one
to stop them). We see these people doing this already in small
groups. While you may or may not escape such a thing I would
not assume it. Whatever happens about the closest to what
people can experience as hell on earth would happen, as far as
the constant fear of having protect yourself, possibly killing
for defense, trying to constantly find food, etc. Of course, it
is all context depending, I'm giving a rather negative
scenario. One could give better scenarios like "You might win
the powerball and live happily ever after"... and it is
possible too, but less probable.
This country is not getting better. IMO, it has a cancer and
that cancer is not being taken series. No one on either side
wants to work together to solve the problems... and hence the
problems will get worse.
Now, if you don't believe me and want to take the head in the
sand approach like a few have expressed, I offer you a simple
experiment to prove truth: Simply start watching the US news.
View the local news around places you might want to go(if it's
a very rich area expect to see less negative news, if it's
rather poor expect to see more negative news). Watch the
national news. You can get on you tube and find a lot of
individuals telling their own story and there are lots of video
of the corruption from the government(which proves the common
mentality and the implications there of).
Unfortunately, none of this is exaggeration. It proves the
spiral is downward(negative) rather than upward. If anyone
denies that then they are imbeciles, it is factual. An ideal
and peaceful worlds does not have the types of things in it
that a the worse ideal worlds do and it should not take a very
intelligent person to know that what one sees in the American
mentality and social relations(and humanity in general) are
things that are not found an ideal and peaceful world. E.g.,
the constant hate for people of different backgrounds or skin
color.
So, all one can argue is the magnitude of the problem. Is it
insignificant like some say(or want to believe)? or is it
significant like others say(or want to believe).
Only you can and should decide that. But you obviously are
aware of it in your own country and then probably can see it in
this country if you look. You should look before you come here,
which is my point with all this. I do not know if there are
better places to be of course, Maybe America is the best of the
worst(which could also be the worse of the worst?)? Obviously
there are other places in the world we know are bad and America
is better(Sudan, Congo, etc).
Chances are, if you come to America and are a hard worker you
can make a living and live comfortably enough. Being a
foreigner your likelihood of negative experiences goes up(more
likely to have issues either with the government or the people
around you). You will have to deal with the constant insanity
of Americans though(why do you think their country is so
screwed up?). Of course, the insanity is no different than
anyone else but it is different in how it comes out. People
tend to be very shallow, very invested in stupid shit like
sports, don't care about others unless they are friends or
family, etc. Over half the country is very religious and
believe in a some of the stupidest shit that distorts their
understanding of reality and shapes the whole dynamic. A large
part of the population are imbeciles. They don't know how to do
anything about drink alcohol, fuck, and watch tv.
Again, this is not to say there are no goods. But you should no
the cons if you are going to make such a big decision. You
shouldn't want to meet a chick, fall in love, and then 10 years
later she tells you she's HIV positive transvestite escort and
her boyfriend is getting out of jail for triple murder tomorrow
and if he finds out about you he's going to kill you, would you?
Do your homework and you see what you see. What I want you be
able to do is make the right choice! Whatever it is, believe
me, I hope I'm just a crazy person and America is nearly a
person world and everyone is happy... But I'm also a realist
and I don't fool myself in to believing what I want if the
evidence suggests something different.
My prediction, if it matters, is that the US will continue with
only getting mildly worse(assuming NK or Iran issues don't go
nuclear) for about 5-10 years. In about 15-25 years the US will
start having major issues(sort like precursors to the
earthquake). Mainly it will effect the poor and lower middle
class, but their problems are ultimately everyone's problems).
Soon after (20-30) years the US will start to nose dive and
will go in to massive organ failure. This is when the shit hits
the fan and this is when the US will quickly become a 3rd world
country. It will be hell for most for a short time and then
just chaos, fear, uncertainty, etc for those that are left.
I'm almost certain that the US will not slowly recover and
learn and pull out of it's tailspin(although it is fully
capable of doing it, it would take leaders to do it and no one
is doing it). The trend is that it is getting worse. We are
doing all the wrong things. The rich and poor are becoming more
polarized, the black vs white is becoming more polarized. The
government and the people are becoming more polarized(the
government is starting to become it's own entity independent of
the people). There is some hope but very little. People are
just too selfish and too stupid to care enough to sacrifice.
People are not learning and not able to be self sufficient.
Without the economy supplying all the necessities such as food,
water, and shelter(prebuild for your convenience) these people
cannot exist. Many do not even know how to cook without a
microwave nor how to grow anything to eat. This type of
behavior then makes them extremely dependent on the system and
the system on them. Once one goes, the other goes. If you think
of America(or humanity) like a program, it is a program that is
buggy and the methodology of creating it creates more bugs,
which creates more bugs. Instead of changing the method so that
bugs are minimized, the same flawed method is used. This is the
same in all countries and of all countries that have failed.
Anyways,
I have been told by several that Australia is a good place to
go and I myself have thought about it. It seems that Australia
is probably a rather insulated society in that the rest of the
world could kill itself off and they'd be ok(probably a lot to
do with it it being so physically isolated and somewhat small.
Goods and people can't move as easily between it and the rest
so mentally the people are more independent minded and closer
knitted society). I've heard though that it is expensive to
live there and one it is difficult to stay.
The Bible (God's word, a historical writing, writings forged by
men, ...whatever you believe it to be) has this quotation at 2
Timothy 3:1-5 which says:
"But KNOW THIS, that in the last days critical times hard to
deal with will be here.
For MEN will be lovers of themselves, lovers of MONEY, boastful,
haughty, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful,
disloyal,
having no natural affection, not open to any agreement,
slanderers, without SELF-CONTROL, fierce, without love of
goodness,
betrayers, headstrong, puffed up with pride, lovers of pleasures
rather than lovers of God
having an APPEARANCE of godliness but PROVING FALSE to its
power; and from these turn away"
When you analyse those points mentioned above you realise that
things are happening exactly. For a writing of almost 2000 years
ago.
