Which countries have a general attitude of gratefulness and appreciation in that sense? I especially mean about work/career/business rather than personal life.

    Everyone says the US, while Americans are running away from the US cuz they don’t want their kids to get shot and inflation is so high. I’m american and my wife and I are waiting for my wife’s green card and we’re living outside the US and feels like we’re trying to get a ticket to the titanic.

    So long story short, money and work only matter so much. If u don’t mind living somewhere that’s essentially a warzone (the whole country) where you can get arrested for trying to go save your child in a school under attack by some pissed off gunman, then go ahead, go to america. We live in turkey, we don’t have to worry about any of these things but we’re worried that we’ll have to go back to that…

        Who’s looking at Twitter? My parents live in Iowa and have been near 2 mass shootings and were extremely near the shooting at the mall in Dallas when visiting family, and the schools in Iowa have been getting bomb threats and shooting threats (and hit lists being posted online that make the schools close for 2 days and the students not being allowed to take any backpacks or purses to the school) for the elementary schools, as well as hearing about shootings almost every week at the University of Illinois at Champaign-urbana from my friends that take classes there…so again, who needs Twitter?
