I seriously believe that much, much more people are immigrating still to this country than pulling the ex-pat thing.

Why is that?

could it be, that with all of the problems this country is still far and away the place to find freedom and opportunity?

chicago is full of people of Irish descent. Many of them who I have known say Ireland is a nice place to visit and trace their roots.

But I have a feeling, they, like all types of people are extremely glad to be here.

In other words, if you leave, 2 others will cry with happiness to be here in your place.
