I'd rather be unemployed here than earn $200k in the U.S.

I prefer having human rights, universal healthcare, actual functioning representative democracy, extensive workers rights, functioning social services, mass transport, better education, drinkable tap water anywhere in the country, better food safety regulation, better health and safety regulation, no school shootings, etc. No, the things I like are bought with blood, not money, but thanks for the offer.

They call it the American Dream, because you have to be asleep to believe it.

Why can't you get a decent job as a software developer? AFAIK there should be plenty of openings in most countries.
