    That’s the biggest shittiest excuse Americans throw out. If things are bad, you can move. My ancestors have moved with nothing but the clothes on their backs multiple times over the last few hundred years. Any refugee truly fleeing violence or generational inexcapable poverty, will move. They will not stop to consider bringing their PS5 with them. They may take some photos, jewellery, and ancestral mementos. Then go.

    The “I’m poor so I can’t do anything” mentality is for lazy idiots. You absolutely can move. No it won’t be as easy as eating cheetos in your underpants in the trailer park. But you can. You just choose not to.
