I notice my affluent friends are plotting exit strategies for if the United States collapses. I didn’t hear this talk much before 2007.
Many of my American friends tell me they think the country is in irreversible decline and that if they had the exit strategy to Australia that I have available to me, they would take it. They love Australia being 90% white (and the rest are Asian). They love its 24 straight years of economic growth. They love its high social capital. They envy the way my family spoils me. They admire Australia’s relaxed way of life. They like its low crime rate.
My family likes me. I wonder how common that is? If you were in the hospital, would your family care? Would they help you out if you got sick? Family can be the best Social Security.
Friend: “Do you see them in LA? At least in AU you have family. One day that will be of critical importance to you. If you stay in LA you can readily extrapolate where you will end up in a few years. What is there left for you to try in LA that you have not already spent years trying? And do you forsee better results if continue on in LA?”
“Has you been able to keep your Jew hand strong while in Australia, or have you felt that part of you weaken?”
Chaim Amalek: “A wise man once said that the definition of madness was doing the same thing over and over again and expecting to get a different and better result.”
“You could tutor those who want to polish their writing skills, offer proofing services for the immigrant unsure of his writing skills, mow lawns, work with your family, etc.”
