    sometimes people don’t want to live in the middle of nowhere forever. not many engineering jobs there. we all want economic mobility too

        I don’t think you understand - I can live poor and destitute without a job in my hometown, or leave to find work somewhere else. This is the reality of many Americans in rural America.

        This isn’t a quest for “wealth”, it’s a quest for life

            Lmao, it’s cute how you think you have some moral/ethical high ground here. Wouldn’t be at all surprised if you have this view because no one would want you around no matter where you happened to be. Run along little troll.
