Lets see, first I came over on a student work visa which was valid for 6 months. I got a stamp at the airport in my passport ordering me to go to my local police department and register. I had to get a job with in a certain amount of time but the people I got the job with had to show why a Brit couldn't do the job. So, I ended up as a 'north american travel specialist' at a travel agency. The police department gave me a green booklet that I had to get my boss to fill in and then I had to take it back to the police station and register my job. If I had changed my job in that 6 months I would of had to go back and register the change. I also ( the order is bit faded in my mind) had to go to jupiter house in London and get some more paperwork that give me solid permission to stay for six months. I had to basiclly give them bits of my liver to prove I wasn't going to break the law. Meanwhile two guys next to me at the row of desks were from Turkey. The guy who was being interviewed, didn't speak English AND came over on his BROTHER''s passport and was allowed in. After six months I married my british husband and then it was off to Lunar house in Croydon ( I HATE this place) to register our marriage and apply for permanent stay. This place is insane. It is where all the assylum cases go as soon as they land/arrive in London which means everyone from Heathrow and Gatwick. The line starts outside the building, we got there at 6:30am - they didn't open until 9am - and there were already 500 people in the line. Apparently the first person had lined up at 10pm the night before. Once in there we had to 'prove we loved each other' and provide a zillion banks statements (to show I had my own means of support) and letters coming to the house with my name on it, etc. About five hours after walking in the door they gave me temporary residence and said I had to come back a year later when they could grant permenant residency. This time, the woman next to me was from Iran. She was black and blue all over her face. She said she had been married but she tried to get a divorce. Her husband stole her passport and went back to Iran. She showed them letters from his family saying that if she returned to Iran they would kill her. I watched her cry as they said she had to go back. Then a year into our marriage we went back and the line outside Lunar House was still long but luckily we got in that day. We were seen at the window three hours after being let in and we were told that our case was good BUT that I only brought two bankstatements and apparently now I needed three. Oh, I could go get them but they were closing in two hours. Well, we don't drive and this is on the otherside of London. I jumped on a train, ran into the house - I don't run - found another statement and luckily as I ran out of the house my mother in law's car drove past the door. I threw myself into her path and begged her to drive me to Croydon. She sped all the way to Croydon, I ran down the hill to Lunar House, they wouldn't let me back in because they were about to close but I was allowed to hand my husand the statement through the door. Next I saw him he had my passport in hand with my tressured green card that grants me residency forever. This means that I can live and work here and own a buisness, etc. Also, after five years had passed (It is now a bit over 7 for me) I was allowed to vote and if I needed to draw benefits I could. All of that and it was only that EASY because my husband was British and I managed to come in on a student Visa :) |

In general, a lot of countries are okay with rich or talented people immigrating. Naturally they don't want freeloaders, they want people who will contribute more than they take from the country, so poor, uneducated, or unemployable immigrants are less desirable everywhere. Canada and various Carribean countries set exact dollar amounts, like Canada pretty much give citizenships if you're a businessperson who has US$600,000 to $650,000 in assets. There are plenty of companies that specialize in helping you gain citizenship in other countries. I'd pick the countries you're interested in and then research them, it should only take a few minutes googling for the citizenship requirements of a given country. |
I would always encourage people to move out of the US. Everyone who feels inclined this way should certainly do so quickly before things get even worse here. I have spent almost half of my life outside the US....in the UK, South Africa, Hong Kong, Brazil, Amsterdam, etc.... and although I personally love it here and wish to live in the US for the rest of my life, I absolutely admire and respect people who decide to leave. When I don't like a country, I don't live there, and hate when people, (not you Cassie), think that a certain country is bad, but continue to live/visit there. Case in point, I have never liked France, (they never liked me, being an american jew), so I try my best not to go there unless forced to by business. Same goes for certain other countries that I feel suck.
If I might suggest France BTW, one need only to molest a minor, and then flee before your trial. You will always be welcome there. This works especially well if you have shot some content at some point, you will then be acclaimed as an artist when you arrive.:Graucho |

I know if you want into Canada it's almost essential to have a degree. Welcome to a country where college is a right so everyone and there mother has a degree, heh. if you are truly that frightened you should stand up and fight for what you want. find groups your can support or volunteer time to and try to make a difference. donate to an anti-bush movement :). though, since you are clearly into running, i suggest France. |

i admire people who want to move for the right reasons for themselves. running away from a problem(s) doesnt solve anything. the only time i would suggest altering ones life in such an extreme manner is when one has tried every avenue to make changes or a difference. if that does not work, then make the life altering change for then one knows that he/she did everything they could to make their life better and it just didnt work. some things cant be changed and some things can. i think its worth the fight to try to change things one doesnt like and if one doesnt succeed, then they can say they tried and thats all that can be done. if i had to move from here, i would consider ireland, sweden, amsterdam, aus.; it would have to be places where all four seasons existed and people speak english well cause i suck at learning a foreign language. amsterdam is top on the list. |

Sharing remote = ok (if no sports are on) Cuddling after sex = ok (if you turn it into a nap opportunity) Talking about your feelings = ok (basic, no in depth) Helping with household chores = (ok, however, you should start laying the groundwork now by burning dinner, dying the clothes pink when doing laundry, etc.. while still getting credit for trying) Once you get married, the zero tolerance goes into full effect |

She looked a little puzzled, but brought him a beer. When he finished it, he said, "Quick, bring me another beer. It's gonna start." This time she looked a little angry, but brought him a beer. When it was gone he said, "Quick, another beer before it starts." "That's it!" She blew her top! "You bastard! You waltz in here, flop your fat arse down, don't even say hello to me and then expect me to run around like your slave. Don't you realize that I cook and clean and wash and iron all day long?" The husband sighed, "Shit, it's started..." |

Now I can see the reason why many US citizens are arriving here.
They appear to range across the spectrum, from singles, families to seniors. The number of familes are increasing. Why? The common "thread" seems to repeat the word "escape" regularly. They ain't stupid. |
I love my country but I hate my government.
Those of you who say "at least we have a Constitution and Bill of Rights to guarantee freedom" are being a bit naive, since our government stopped obeying the Constitution a LONG time ago. If things keep going the way they're going in the USA (belligerent politicians starting wars, decreased privacy & civil liberties, massive government spending, high taxes, terrorist attacks), I'll probably move to Australia or New Zealand. |
