MODERATORS
I'm a software engineer that works for a company in London. My salary is lower comparatively to many of those a level lower in the US.
I'm looking to move to California soon, where my salary will effectively double, arguably more so since I'll be taking more home.
I can afford a home an hour from work in London. In CA I seemingly can't afford shit, and rent nearby will absolutely wipe me out. It's insane how one can earn the kind of money people can retire on in Europe and barely live a middle-class life. I'm in an extremely privileged position, and given my position I have no idea how others manage to do shit like have families.
Have you considered investing in 1996?

I wouldnt come to America until we see how our next election goes
If the Democrats win, you might be okay in a couple years
but if not, moving to California in 2024 is gonna be like moving to Poland in 1938
We are on the precipice of launching into fully unchecked fascism, or starting twenty years of the hardest repair work conceivable in order to make this country worth living in again
