Default Re: France\'s social market vs. the U.S.\'s libertarian/less social market

The other thread= too long.

But more importantly I think this is the most fundemental reply to the 'oh no a few wealthy people are leaving!!! The sky most be falling!!!' arguments against economic security and equality. The reply is, to summarize: big deal. We have more important things to worry about.

That 'call out' was a joke. Emigration is costly; you leave behind your friends and family, move to an unfamilar area with an unfamilar dialect and culture.

I could poll this question in a less ideologically biased area and get numbers similar to this. Just like if I posted it in a forum dominated by lefties I would get over 90% in support.
