I don't know how much opportunity there is in other countries, but I do know a lot of Asian immigrants who have come here with very littlle and worked their [BAD WORD REMOVED] off and have achieved the American dream.   They look around and say, "What is wrong with these people, they have opportunity right in front of them but they don't do anything to take advantage of it."   I've never seen such a sharp, hard-working bunch of people in my life.   I could never have done what I see them do every day.   Native born Americans are spoiled.   I met one Chinese guy who had to walk out of China into Southeast Asia on his journey to America.   Several of his companions died along the way.  

 

You say, "so much more opportunity in other countries..."   People are literally dying to get into the United States.   And they will tell you this is the greatest country on earth.
