I Often Think About Leaving My Country

I don’t want any hate but I think it’s time for me to leave the U.S. I don’t have anything against it. Hell, I was born and raised in the good ol’ USA. But I’m moving to England because of the amount shit my family is pushing onto me. I need time and space to clear my mind. And the politics, I can’t even enjoy one day of school because of just how much people talk about the politics. And it’s mainly the American politics. Once I graduate high school I will be moving for good. Plz no hate.

The U.S. is generally pretty shitty. I plan to leave when I'm able, as well. The risk of dying from gunshot wounds would be significantly lower in most of Europe. As would dying from a health condition when you cant afford to go to a doctor. Or afford an education. And not because America inherently provides better quality services, but just because corporations can do whatever they like here. We're woefully inefficient at spending. America has tons of money, but it burns most of it being ineffectual.
