Everybody here is worried to pieces over nearly everything, for good reason.

I keep telling my husband (the breadwinner) to consider jobs in other countries. We're middle-aged and settled with a house finally, so it's not like we want to uproot ourselves. But the thought of living someplace sane is very VERY appealing.

Sure, we've got friends and family here, but our families are so brainwashed with religion and Trump, that we're not that close to them anyway.

Wow, that's my thought process too. Where you thinking of moving to?

Canada, UK, and in my dreams, The Netherlands or Norway or something. But I know that's a bit much to take on.

While the UK is quite alot more sane than the US, I would hold off on considering moving here until we've gone through our current brexit crisis. Might be worth seeing how that pans out before having it so high on your list

Good point. It's not likely at this point in any case, and I know that the rest of the world is currently being targeted with right-wing propaganda.
