    Hi there, before commenting or unsubscribing, the other half of this video about Where To Move if Kamala Harris Wins is here: ruclips.net/video/X1vC_RkJ4NA/видео.html I made two videos for a fair and balanced perspective. ^Correction: In this video, I said that Angela Merkel and Olaf Scholz are from the same political party. However, Merkel is a member of the Christian Democratic Union of Germany while Scholz is member of the Social Democratic Party. My apologies for the error.

      That might have been good to say at the beginning of the video rather than having a headline/title stand alone that makes it sound as if you endorse her. I literally thought about unsubscribing until I watched the beginning of the video and you mentioned you are just sharing the information. The title could easily be misconstrued, but of course, it's all about clicks and comments, so the headline did its job apparently. Some people, however, might not get that far in the video and just read the title and make that decision to unsubscribe.

      @@MikeDavis-li8tk I think it was a good play because some people would’ve been anticipating commenting on another video instead of this one without knowing and probably wouldn’t fully give input here. Then again everybody’s different. Some say it should’ve been brought up, the other half didn’t matter. She can’t satisfy everyone at once. I’d say it’s their fault for not watching the whole message. That wouldn’t be anything different than what people already do that follow her. They should know her better than that she would bring politics in on one side, but then some may be too sensitive.

      @@WrldExplorer I hear you and that makes sense. Politics can be divisive, so to have a headline like that with no explanation in the video that there will be a different video coming out tomorrow about "Where to Move if Kamala Wins." Not everyone will make it to the comments to see her comment that the other video is coming out tomorrow.
      I love her videos. I think she is amazing, and her videos are ones I look forward to seeing, but this is a goof-up in my opinion.

    If you are going to Canada for a 180 day exploratory visit, please understand that any health care costs you incur you will have to pay up front, and out of pocket. It costs roughly $1000 out of pocket to be seen at a hospital ER. If you emigrate to Canada, be prepared to pay roughly 1/2 of your income in taxes (income, property, gasoline, carbon tax, sales tax, etc.) Go visit Canada, but don't get sick unless you have good travel insurance.

      Did you give up your US citizenship? Also, Toscana of Germany, what did you mean by that? Did you mean "Ticino" of Germany (as in the Italian-speaking canton of Switzerland that's warmer both culturally and weather wise than the rest of that country)? What's analogous to Ticino in Germany? I would guess something like Konstanz or to be even more esoteric guess the German enclave within Switzerland called "Büsingen am Hochrhein"?

      Thanks for your interest. When I finally decided on a German future, I imagined dual citizenship. My first apöplikcyation failed. I argued that part of my income came from the States. Using the same argumentation I tried a second time. When I came to do formalities the authorities presented a document whereby I renounced US citizenship. In short, I acceded and am now 100% "German". From my upbringing I am American. My wife is German.
      We are horrified about the political scene especially because I served in the USAR and was raised in a conservative way.
      Our home is close to Baden Baden. It is warm. We harvest 2 weeks earlier than 100 km to the north, thus "Toscana of Germany".
      I do not regret my choice. In ghe States I already spoke German from my graduate studies and for personal reasons. No-one had an inkling in the 1990s that MAGA would strive for a dictatorship. I voted a couple of time Rep before expatriating- for the candidate, not the party.

    It’s important to remember that every European country with a strong social welfare system, work/life balance, publicly funded medical care, and all the other aspects of life that are assumed to be of value to Democratic US citizens, also have similar societal pressures, anti-immigration sentiments, growing resentment of green initiatives, and surging right-wing parties fueled by all of the above. And unless you are able to claim citizenship by descent, you will not be able to vote in your adopted country for at least five years, or in some cases even longer.

I am 73 years old, so well-settled in my US lifestyle. Since language would be a barrier, what you said about Canada and France were both good for me, although I worry about expense. Most of all, this video has lowered my anxiety level. I think Harris will win due to the extreme enthusiasm -- greater than during any previous election -- even when Obama was running. But the polls are so close. Therefore, it was nice to pin down some possibilities just in case Trump wins.

      There are no perfect countries (maybe Norway and Switzeland are getting close). I'm an immigrant and I chose the USA after having traveled to many countries on different continents. There is a reason why millions of immigrants come to the States from all over the world. No "free" healthcare? Who cares if the country provides plenty of opportunities to make money and buy your own insurance. Less taxes than in most of developed countries mean you can save more for what is important for you. Safety nets are not free and government will abuse money it gets.

    FYI, since the late 90s, many people have said that they would move if candidate "x" would win. For example, Rush Limbaugh famously said that he would move to Costa Rica if Hillary Clinton had beaten Donald Trump in the 2016 elections. Note that Costa Rica (as Kristin mentioned) has universal healthcare and a strong social system, so it was likely that Limbaugh may not have been happy there.
    (On a side note, "Ottowa" is spelt "Ottawa").

    Hi Kristin, I look forward to your next video as well. My first question as I read this video’s title was exactly about that: Where is the best place to move if Harris wins?
    Unfortunately, no matter the country to which we choose to move, in my opinion, the political systems are hopelessly corrupt. It’s just a matter at this point of finding the least corrupt location that has the potential of offering the opportunity for our best life, however we define it.
    Ultimately, no matter where we are, it’s up to each of us to create our best life regardless of any challenges we face.
    Also unfortunately, (again, my opinion), with our US two-party commandeered system, we are continually faced with the choice between the least evil of two at best mediocre candidates. I know I am not alone in that opinion, given the geometrically growing number of Americans seeking to expatriate.
    In my view, as you and others have pointed out, in many ways, the US is NOT the best country in the world. Obviously the choice to live elsewhere is based on both objective and subjective factors.
    Thank you for all you bring for our awareness and enrichment!

He never had the mental capacity to be president and I voted for him last time thinking the power would be held by good people put in place by Joe's handlers. I share the opinion that the US has earned a depression, perhaps fall, that is as bad as any has been in world history. I believe a lot of people have an escape plan. I think Warren Buffett is a pretty smart investor and If you look at what Berkshire Hathaway currently holds, it's 25% cash (a record) and the stocks held earn a lot of their revenue outside the US. Apple, the biggest stock holding, earns 58% of its revenue outside the US. I don't know if Trump can save the US but, I believe he wants to. It looks to me like the Biden Harris crew are trying to hurry the collapse along. We are setting a lot of all time records and none of them are good.
