Give me your fat, your wealthy,
Your idle rich yearning to stomp on the poor for free,
The oligarchs, embezzlers, and parasites of your teeming shore.
Send these, their mansions, their tempest-tost yachts to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!

Well, I'm not wealthy but I make good money.

Does that mean I should try buying American citizenship?

If you have a million of liquid cash and your life is so dreary buying American citizenship seem like good distraction.

BTW, if you need to work for a living, we don't want you.

We want the embezzelers and oligarchs.

We are already a police state. The fiction of a bunch of armed rabble rising up against it is just modern mythology.

There's been too many people watching Red Dawn on Netflix who don't know shit about modern military tactics regarding insurgencies ... and too many folks with their heads down in the consumer pigtrough to care what gets done to any putative rebels.

Here in the US, I would imagine it would mean that a lot of people would be called terrorists and taken to some special place to be tortured. If part of that torture means having an enema of food stuff that is stereotypical of your region, then those of us from the southeastern US will get a grits enemaConfusedhock:

Don't currently have that amount of money but my life isn't that dreary.

And, yes, I have to work for a living.

If you are making good money and have a comfortable lifestyle in your home country, there probably isn't much reason to, huh?
