1990 child here. To avoid a lengthy block of text I've deleted it all and decided on a short sum.

While I can only speak from my own experience, many of my friends and colleagues (EE) have left the country already. There are lots of good arguments on both sides and plenty of stories to each end. That said, it comes to this, the people in my generation with real skill are leaving. Not all of them, but enough that it's becoming noticeable. Maybe it's always been this way, maybe not, needless to say my sample size is low so draw conclusions at your own risk. That's just my two cents on it (in reference to what it is like for under-30's).

People I knew when I was younger later went on to get a good education and moved to the U.S.A. for work.

They still have student debt, but with practically no interest adjusted for inflation, and they didn't have to pay for university. They won't be spending their future worrying about their loans.

Grow up in a country with ~30% income tax and ~25% VAT, get universal healthcare and free education, then emigrate and take a job and pay (less) taxes in another country where working actually makes you money.

Where are your friends and colleagues going, if I may ask?

[MarchHare]

Which country are they leaving and where are they going?

I'm going to leave my country too, it's full of people with opinions I cannot relate to.
