I would like to live in the USA

There's another topic about the American dream that's less than 9 years old.

At least it was a substantial post and not just a ""

Hello Miska,

Welcome to Expat.com

Since you posted on an very old thread, a new discussion was created as from your post on the USA forum for better visibility.

Can you please give us more details regarding your green card?

Thank you,

Miguel,

My parents emigrated to the United States and I have lived here for over 40 years.  Over the course of my lifetime, I have seen "the American Dream" die.  There have been a number of things that have conspired to cause this, but suffice it to say that the level of opportunity here is much less than it used to be.  In the first quarter of 2014, the number of Americans surrendering US citizenship hit an all time high.

There are many opportunities for a hard working talented young person in this world, but there are far fewer of them found within our borders than there used to be.

Good luck.

Hello,
thanks for your answers
I don´t have any green card - that´s the problem

Hi, I´m from Czech republic. I have once been in the USA. I worked as lifeguard in 2012 there. I love everything in the States. I would like to live there, but it is problem with green card. It drives me mad when I can´t live there
You are happy people. So I believe in American dream
Take care!

The American Dream is alive and well, but I would be very surprised if anyone is willing to sponsor a visa for a lifeguard.  Do you have any other job skills?

There are 300 million of us.  I think we'll survive.

Over our cold dead bodies.

@stumpy: Ha, typical kiwi. Talking trash about the US but living in Australia (or Asia).

That just makes him international.

The all time high was 3,000, mostly for income tax reasons.  Big deal

That's nothing, especially when you look at how many people come in.

Exactly.

Hi Miguelka,

As posted previously, there are many more people coming to the USA than leaving.

People have been jealous of the United States for a very long time.  Why should that stop now?

Hi Miska.  I currently live in Los Angeles and have a room for rent.  If you plan on studying or working here, let me know.  Take care,  Diana
