I agree with Carmen, those are all things worth fighting for!

The Republican Party of Trump is on a mission to eliminate all those things in America.

It’s the ‘Christian’ thing to do, right?

I don’t know much about this Jesus fella, but I highly doubt he’d be a Republican . . .

One reason some people are considering leaving is that those things have become common elsewhere. Without the insanity and with a higher standard of living.

How free are you if you die because you can’t afford medical bills?

What about the number trying to come to America, we seem to be on the plus side, based on the numbers

Man, that’s EXACTLY my country of choice should I leave.

it’s always beware of what you wish for. I listened to a WashingtonPost writer tell African Americans to look at joining others and move to Ghana after everything that’s been happening. But she failed to mention that a) abortion is illegal, b) being homosexual is illegal and c) there is gang violence and murders with drug trafficking, d) free speech rights (the right to complain) isn’t great. Yes, it’s somewhat less chance of police brutality and yes, it’s cheaper to live there but there are always trade-offs.

The US, for all it’s problem, has many more freedoms than others.. even comparable European countries. So ensure you always know what you are getting and giving up.

The “Underground Railroad” does end in Canada. Canada has been known to accept black human rights asylum seekers from south of their border for the last 200 years.
