Awe, you're sweet.

But for now, our home is here. Something about having my dream job where I get paid a comparatively absurd amount of money to draw pictures of cars professionally, and then getting to race cars once a quarter for work.

That sounds absolutely GREAT! There are A LOT of folks who wish they had your life!

I can't draw stick figures, so I am out.

Perhaps you can try to look past some of the USAs problems and enjoy and be thankful for you have and stick around for a while.

Inviting those you disagree with to leave the country is a pretty desperate and unpleasant arguing tactic.

Exactly.

I'll leave when I'm good and ready. Like my work trip to Ontario, Canada next month. And my weekend in the British Virgin Islands in July.

When you do head north I'll teach you about the fine art of hibernation. The need for the winter package on you car(heated seats, steering wheel, remote start.........), how to wear 97 layers of clothing without looking like the tire guy and hoodies year round are perfectly acceptable and often needed as one of your 97 layers

Now you’re just showing off!

I won't look past them, I'm not blind.

But that doesn't mean I don't enjoy life here.

Do you intend for your posts to come off as so condescending?

Finland Denmark Iceland are the countries reputed to be the happiest places to live. I'm a foodie and those are one of the last places I'd be living in.

Good luck. I hope you get there some day.

The closest I will get is the Norway Pavillion in EPCOT.

Now you’re just showing off!

I'm just making up for two years of no travel due to the pandemic.

Hell, when I go to Detroit for meetings, I pop over into Windsor, Ontario for dinner and ask for them to stamp my passport, just to get some use out of it.

Right. There are a lot of people who love this country but also want to change some things to make it even better!

I'm pretty agnostic on my relationship with the US. Don't love it, don't hate it. Just sort of exist in it and try to not make things worse.

At least it's a convenient country, and there are things I absolutely love about it. And politics aside, I do like most of the people I've met.

Yes, looking past is wrong wording. I am glad you are enjoying life - THAT IS WHAT IS IMPORTANT.

Every single thing he has stated about this has been a total lie, not just stretching the truth.

I fully agree. That post got garbled because I was typing it on mobile and the page reloaded so i didn't get to finish my original thought.

Where I was going was, had he been elected by the majority of Florida voters, saying this was the will of the people of Florida would be a stretch since there was nothing about what he's now doing on the ballots but considering how few actually did vote for him, it's a complete and outright lie.

Russia won't touch Finland, especially now that they're in NATO and that the Nordic countries have begun operating their air forces as a combined fleet.

There's a new show on AppleTV+ with Eugene Levy "Reluctant Traveler" and the first episode he goes to Finland, it was very cool. I'd love to visit the place he stayed.

 

[Disstevefan1]

I am calling out myself - LETS GET BACK TO BASHING DESANTIS - Please go easy on the locals.

 

[mkt]

LETS GET BACK TO BASHING DESANTIS

That's not hard. Every time he opens his mouth, he does the job for us.

 

[lentesta]

I think @lentesta had a chart

This was a rough guess:

 

[MrPromey]

You could reduce all that to five words.

Hey now!

It's not nice to pick on people just because they use too many words.

 

[LittleBuford]

I'm just making up for two years of no travel due to the pandemic.

I know the feeling, and I’m planning to do likewise over the summer.

Happy and safe travels!

I’m not arguing blue/red is better/worse, just saying moving somewhere for greener pastures is not a realistic solution because things change. FL was a very business friendly state, still is if you aren’t on the Governors bad side, but nothings guaranteed.

A little deeper... even if Disney can pay for and install a friendly government, if the people turn on them, things will always be complicated. That's the situation they are facing in Florida where, everyday this stays in the news, the government is trying to turn the people against them.

After DeSantis goes away, will the people of Florida forget what he said?

Almost no one in Florida cares about this Disney VS DeSantis battle. All people care about is that it’s a waste of money and time, oh and that they don’t have home insurance and the FL government hasn’t done anything to help.
