> However there are far more Western Europeans moving to the USA than the other way

Yeah, you have a “engineer” bias: people move to the US when they make top 10% income because it’s the only way your life is better than in a Western European country. You don’t see Europeans making median wage in the US because that would be quite stupid.

My parents combined make maybe 15-20% of my income in the US, they still go on more vacation than me, don’t have to worry about figuring out how healthcare work (yup gotta make sure you don’t go to a out of network hospital by accident otherwise hello 300000$ debt), and sent their kids to university for almost free.

So if you want to strive and achieve excellence, come to America.

If you want to go on vacation more, live in Western Europe.

What are the long term effects of this?
