...One of the big reasons we are not living and working in the states right now....Bush can't take taxes out of my overseas income. Tax money goes to fuel Bush's pre-emptive wars. I don't support you, Sir King George. Money talks.
We actually took a pay cut to come for this job! ...It's all a matter of principles for us. Our reasons for emigrating are;
1.Religion; America isn't very nice to muslims these days!
2.As a political act; to not officially have to pay taxes which contribute to the wars, we were disgusted with the apathy of the American people, etc. Did so much demonstrating for peace, and still the carnage and apathy continued. We were pretty worn-out there at the end.
3.More time to be together as a family. I finish work, at the latest, at 2pm. The benefits here are obvious!
4.To live in a country where children are welcome pretty much everywhere one goes. (famliy-centered, not a money/economy-centered, society).
5.I wanted to work for a while.
