I find it believable and surprising at the same time. Believable because despite what everyone claim, lot of people put money on top of everything else and they will head to where they are welcome to make more money.

Surprising because if a first world nation with high quality life in so many ways faces this problem what about the rest of the world.

It's not about money. There are no jobs in the tech industry in France.

Moved for the job. Stayed abroad for the job and the money.

Then whenever you look at what the country has to offer if you ever go back, you're like: "Fuckkkkkkkk" (yeah, it's that much of a disaster).
