If I had to leave the US and move to another country I would go to Australia.
It's a neutral country and the people look like they do in America.
The accents aren't too hard to get use to and the food isn't too different.
It's a democratic country and it's always warm.
Business is pretty much the same in Australia as it is here, so you wouldn't have to change your lifestyle much.

"And how rewarding it is just to be alive"
There is no one place I would like to travel.
I just want to go.
Go and go and meet and learn.
I want to meet as many people as I can and learn something from each one.
I want to see places that require no words and couldn't be described if you tried.
I don't care if it's England or Africa.
Ireland or Antartica.
I just want to go.
And I can't wait.

"Even as I left Florida, yea it was worth it"
My Thanksgiving took place in Florida.
It was the first one I've had away from my parents, so it was...different.
We took the roadtrip to see a friend, Chris Pack.
I went with 5 or 6 other friends.
Chris and I made the whole dinner, but it didn't take place until midnight.
It was accompanied by Halo and Jello shots.
Not too bad I must say.
I guess an 80degree Thanksgiving was a memorable one.

"A hero of war yea that's what I'll be"
Oh Iraq.
Such a touchy subject.
My brother is a US Marine and has served in Iraq as well as other countries.
My opinion is that we need to stay put. We essentially rebuilt that country and the truth is we will always be there. I think a military base will be built for the US in Iraq so that we don't have to defend ourselves from the other side of the world. We can do it on their own ground.
If we pulled out of Iraq now the country would be taken of by another type of "Gorilla Group".
It would be a waste of time to leave now.
Significantly less troops have died in this war than any other.

"What's a man supposed to do when he's down and out of work"
I think that outsourcing is pretty bad for the economy.
Though sending jobs to cheaper places seems like a good idea, making items cheaper is pointless if the American consumer cannot afford to buy them.
Because most of our goods are made in China I feel that they are in a way more powerful.
All they have to say one day is... we quit. Just like that production of American products stops and we're left in a hole. Not only that but if something like this happened it would probably lead to a war. If anyone could put up a fair fight, it's China. China could also put anything in out products. The lead paint they used has already had a massive reacall for being used in children's toys. In my opinion we need to get out now and start making things in the US.
