Wrong section, buddy. There's a politics section for this stuff.
Also, Republicans don't whine about leaving the country when the Dem (pronounced DAMN) candidate wins, it's the dems that whine about leaving the country when the Repub candidate wins. When the dem candidate wins, Republicans threaten to come to Texas and secede :tongue:

Thanks Dirk. Assiniboia Downs only runs May - September but there are 2 other casinos in Wiinipeg. $50 Blackjack uses only 2 decks. $3 tables with 6 decks. I can live with that.

Wouldn't hurt. But I figure they'll head to Mexico... like the Romney family did. The Canadians might take a dim view of the beliefs of the traitorous neocons and wingnuts who want to abandon the republic simply because their boy didn't win the election. Whereas in Mexico, it's more likely they could grease the right palms and establish walled compounds, so that they could live in (delusional) peace with a house full of 14 year old child brides, who would read scripture while they sat naked by the fireplace. As long as there was a 24/7 Fox News feed, I think they'd be perfectly content down there.
Maybe I should write an email to Bain Capital... ya know, to see if they'd be willing to fund a travel and relocation agency that I could run and accomplish this ASAP.

Why save the world, when you can rule it?
I'd move to Canada but I can't speak Canaderp.
Again, I'm quoting myself to repeat what we Reps "swear we're going to do if the damn candidate wins" (but know that it's not going to happen anyway)
At least we're smart enough to know that if we move to another country, we'll have to live according to THEIR rules. When a Rep. candidate wins, you libs got waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too many choices for the kind of socialist/communist/Marxist/whatever-kind-of-government-the-French-Revolution-brought-(Terror?) you want to move to. For us Reps there's no place like America so leaving abroad is not a choice. If I wanted America to be more like my native Mexico....I'd just go back to Mexico. We got to stay and stand our ground.
No, I don't believe Obama will bring a "socialist" government per se. I think it's going to look more like what I said above: in a worst case scenario and because of all the class hatred/warfare, it'll probably be more like what followed the French Revolution.

Arizona's going to be a "blue state" by 2024. They may want to consider Utah or Wyoming.
Trust me, you don't want to live in Canuckistan. It's not a good place. I love the country (been to three provinces), but politically it's fucked. You will never get rich there. I say this as an American living in a border state, with cousins, a brother in law and a sister who lives there.

I know a couple of real estate brokers who deal in the Toronto area and they seem like they're doing pretty well to me. I don't know what counts as "rich" these days, but when you drive a Ferrari 458, in my book, you're livin' pretty damn large.
And if I hadn't had family obligations several years ago that prevented me from leaving my home base, I would have jumped on an assignment in the Montreal area - not to run away from the political environment here, but it would have been a way to stay with the best company that I have recently worked for.
You can make money most anywhere... and you can go broke most anywhere. There's not a country on Earth that hands you a sack on money when you're born - well, outside of being born into certain royal families, I guess. But as far as average people, it's up to you to get it done, no matter where you live.
Yes, you can get rich there, but it's very, VERY hard.
$20 for tin of chew; $6/gal for gas; $70 for a round of golf - this is all craziness.
Canada has enough oil to feed all their people for generations.

To be honest, getting "rich" (or just generating wealth) has a lot more to do with what business and investment opportunities are available in a particular country, and less to do with what the cost of living is or what tobacco products and a round of golf costs. The cost of living is higher in Canada than in the U.S. However, the rate of growth in millionaires was higher in Canada than in the U.S. in the last report I read (2011?). At 1.4% of the population, Canada was #20 on the list of the 2011 Top 20 Countries with the Highest Proportion of Millionaires. The U.S. was #7 with 5.4%. The United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Hong Kong, Qatar, Switzerland and Singapore were all ahead of us in 2011 - and the cost of living is relatively quite high in all of those places. If you're wearing a $10,000 Rolex, fire up your Rothman's smokes with a $900 Dunhill lighter and are driving a $250K Aston Martin, you aren't really concerned with what a pack of Marlboro reds cost or what the price of gas is.
BTW, here's something interesting that I just read: a report by Business Insider claims that the rate of growth in millionaires in America was higher during Obama's first term than under W. Bush. Assuming that's factually correct, I'd say that's another piece of economic data that many on the far right might find hard to swallow.
