Because after all in Scotland and Holland there are no such things as "freedom" and "rights", whatever they are?
Over here in Europe we can only dream of Mom's home made Mobile Phone manufacturer pie.

But when I would trade all the whiskey in Scotland or the hash in Holland for the freedom and rights I have in America.
Please tell us which freedoms and rights you have that these two countries don't have?

Well the obvious one would be the guns. As of yet, I'm not being taxed to extreme that you guys are. No TV tax in the states yet. But I do concede that things are changing due to apathy and ignorance on the part of the people. We have let too many rights slip away, and after 9/11 things got worse with Homeland Security and the Patriot Act. I have hope that things will change for the better. But I also know the outcome of ♠hitting in one hand and hoping in the other. Which is why I started the expat threads.
I guess my thought is that if America is such a horrible place, why do people risk life and limb to get there? Maybe because there is the promise of a better life? I should ask all the UK expats I know why they moved to the colonies.
