At one point my German husband was looking into becoming a US citizen, but just never got around to it. I stopped encouraging it years ago, because Germany has weird laws about dual citizenship and he would likely have to give his up to become a US citizen. As a result, we have a European exit plan. While I'd really like the US to get it's shit together, knowing we have options is nice.
You no longer have to give up citizenship to be a German citizen, and the US doesn't require that either. A new law passed this year and comes into effect sometime around April I believe (still new to the exact legislation process in this country).
But yes, I would not encourage anyone to move to the US at this time. They are the largest proponent of late stage capitalism and those policies bring instability to the worker classes which begets authoritarianism. That's rarely a good thing for anyone.
Ohhh that's good to know! We already live in the US though. I'll have to look at the new legislation. Thanks for the info!
