@skinnylatte I've seen folks wanting to come here where I've thought "why???" in the sense that it doesn't seem like a good economic deal (worse wages relative to cost of living and buying power, vastly higher health care costs, ...) and the reasons usually come out to be things like opportunity for next generation, perceived social status, ability to get away from "home town" environment to a place where outsiders are not unusual and nominally have equal rights, etc.
