    I don’t mean this in a horrible way, but a lot of people on here are extremely entitled when it comes to immigration.The US is an incredibly hard place to move to, even if you are a skilled worker. While it often is easier to move into Europe or Canada, it’s not a given that you can just walk into any of these countries and expect to live there. Immigration is hard!

      Yes. As someone who’s emigrated and researched it I can say many desirable countries are more difficult to get in to than the US.

      American’s attitude that they can just “leave” with a passport and a backpack is just another form of American exceptionalism.
