Working on a thing about this I will tag you when I post it. It relates to the current discourse about the labor aristocracy: worker politics in the imperial core are just about gaining faster access to the housing market 90% of the time without any regard for immigrants, the under- & unemployed, and without any considerstion at all of the global periphery. When there are reverse transplants from the core to the periphery (instead of petit boug in the periphery making enough money to come to the US) it’s done in a way where people exploit currency exchange rates to live without working the rest of their lives. (So becoming more bourgeois is almost always a retirement goal for core workers)
So this will be a guide for how not to be a shitty expat and actually integrate
I would love to read something like this, just as a curiosity. I fully intend to stick around and fight beside my comrades that can’t or won’t leave. But of course I have no kids and don’t plan to.
How to deal with the proletarianization of the US is an intimidating subject that communists basically have to tread into completely alone, it’s hard work, there is no alt media or quirked up social science journal that can chart the course. Putting the escape hatch issue to bed should be a lot easier than that
Here’s hoping I win the lottery, huh? 😉
Hey it’s actually possible on a modest salary, you just need to a pick a country that pays its workers and will let you in
Which countries are those?
