OliverQ's JournalTips on moving to other countries.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to emigrate to another country? Been wanting to do this for years, but I've become more desperate recently. Are there any countries that are easier to get in than others?
I know it's nearly impossible for most 1st world countries unless you have a super high skill set. Unfortunately, I work in the hospitality (hotel) industry and the performing arts, which leaves me with almost no options.
Would I be better off trying to do a program in something like medicine since lots of medical professions are needed in other countries?
My parents are looking to retire to another country as well, but unfortunately they want English speaking countries like Canada or Ireland which don't offer retirement visas. If they were able to get in somewhere, would I have a better chance of emigrating to where they are since I'd then have a close connection to the country?
Wish I had a job/business I could do remotely so I could move without needing a work visa.
I know my options are pretty slim, but just thought I'd start a discussion on it. I envy people with EU citizenship who can move around to lots of different countries.
Schiff on CNN talking about attempts to shut down Mueller.
He's horrified at how Republicans, especially in the House are trying to shut down Mueller in defense of Trump.
Rod Rosenstein to testify to House over Mueller team emails
I know we're all excited about Doug Jones, but this has me really worried.
A stack of emails was sent to Congress from some on Mueller's team who called Trump a loathsome human being and an idiot.
Obviously, we agree that's very true and everyone has an opinion, but this is also going to intensify the calls from Fox and Republicans that Mueller's investigation is biased against Trump and needs to be shut down.
Nunes Cleared by House Ethics
Just posted by CNN reporter on twitter.
They claimed he didn't mishandle classified info. How the heck can he not have violated ethics? He's literally an accessory to treason by trying to cover for Trump!
I'm so fed up with Republicans never facing consequences. Why do we always get screwed by evil people?
On MSNBC, 4 Dem Senators call for Franken to resign
Ugh, this is very bad. We're going to lose a Senate seat it looks like. Franken gets railroaded by suspicious allegations, while Trump and Moore get no consequences.
House Republicans Prepare Contempt Action Against FBI, DOJ
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-12-03/u-s-house-republicans-prepare-contempt-action-against-fbi-doj-jaqegoooThis crap makes me so mad. Nunes is recused from Russia investigations and is under an ethics investigation. How the heck are these people getting away with this crap?
Time to pull money out of the stock market?
Dow Jones broke 24,000 today over the strong odds that corporations and the rich will get their massive tax cut. Of course, every time these big tax cuts go through, they crash stock market crashes and destroys everyone finances.
Is it now dangerous to leave money in the stock market?
Grassley and Trump plan to pack the US Judiciary
Just reported on MSNBC that Grassley wants to add 447 federal judicial positions that Trump can pack with ultra-conservative justices that serve for life.
This is so transparent and corrupt, yet nothing we can do to stop it. I anticipate a massive regression of social policies and equality in the near future.
This country is really on its way to being unlivable and more akin to 2nd and 3rd world countries. Conservative dominated countries are almost always hell-holes. America is headed in that direction.
While I hope we can stop the damage, I also wish I had some other options of countries to move to. As a gay Jew, I'm very concerned about my rights and safety in this country, completely ignoring the the issues with healthcare and taxes which will substantially hurt me.
Got banned from City Data politics forum. Should I be sad?
Aside from here and Reddit, I frequent City Data politics. Have been there for 8 years. Keep getting targeted by their absolutely disgusting, Trump worshipping mods who target Democrats for the tiniest things, delete their posts, and let Trump trolls get away with murder.
But it used to be much better with lots of good liberal/Dem posters and is one of the largest on the internet. I got my final warning, 30 day suspension today for hijacking/trolling threads. Apparently I've been mentioning Trump too much in threads, and the idiot mods view that as trolling. Meanwhile, Hillary and Obama get attacked daily by the Trump cult with no consequence.
I get bummed over getting banned places. You put years into a community and then to never be allowed back bothers me. Anyone else feel that way? I'm also mad I can't get revenge on the idiot mod who banned me. He needs to be removed.
Tax Reform can used reconciliation?
I keep hearing that reconciliation is going to be used to pass the Tax bill. I thought they wasted that on Healthcare and couldn't use it again until next session?
