Salaries have diminishing returns too. If you balance income and quality of life, if you can reach a certain point that's reasonable for you, it doesn't make sense at all to go through the trouble of moving.

Anyway the US is really at the bottom of the list. Most people would prefer anywhere in Europe or at worse Canada and Australia.

Too bad none of the immigration numbers bear this out.

Friendly reminder that what you prefer does not necessarily generalize.

They do. The only country in Europe I can think of where the US is the favored destination is Germany.

Note that by « most people » I was implicitly referring to my people, and in a larger sense Europeans. Not humanity at large.
