    Inside the pot: slowly boiling water

    Outside the pot: raging inferno that is heating the pot

    When given the option to slowly boil, or jump into a raging inferno, I think most people would think twice about jumping out of the pot.

      Pot boiling and the raging inferno are both in America. Go and explore, the world is more peaceful then you think

        I understand, but like lots of people in America I was born here and have have had my wages suppressed because of multiple “once in a lifetime” financial crises to the point I can’t afford to travel, and therefore I can’t afford to immigrate.

          I genuinely so sorry and wish the good Americans could move over easier. One word of advice you don’t have to take at all. If you wanna travel look into placements like teaching or volunteering. Having a more global perspective rather than America focus will help a lot, seeing a world outside the bougie third world nation of America. But I’m rooting for you bud
