"I don’t have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad, "

This post is just asking: So, what are you doing about it?

    Work, school, and family are unfortunately the easiest ways to get a visa. I got lucky with my job and took the first opportunity that opened up, and I’m so glad I did because there haven’t been any more openings since then. Unfortunately I took about a 50% pay cut to move.

      Considering how expensive things are in the USA, I hope you got to a country with a lower cost of living. Well, also, no amount of money is worth your personal safety.

        I had to give up some luxuries but honestly, my lifestyle hasn’t really changed. I’ve always lived somewhat frugally. Healthcare no longer costs an arm and a leg either. The US is just a special level of hell.

            It’s never really a good idea to share your home location online. At least nothing good can come out of it

              I was only asking the country. I think that’s pretty safe.

            Because every time I do I get a horde of angry knuckledraggers, but you can easily find it in my history
