To piggyback on what PaulDavisThe1st said.

Record numbers of US citizens seeking to relocate to Canada & the UK. In the last couple months I remember seeing several news stories variously about Doctors, Professors and students applying and/or relocating.

Layoffs in the tech sector haven't slowed at all, and couple that with the DOGE Govt layoffs and the recent jobs numbers stories.

I feel quite certain that if the U.S. is actually measured "at #1" for anything good, it won't retain it much longer.

Bias Disclaimer: I'm a former software engineer working an hourly labor job.

US citizens relocating to Canada and the UK seems misguided at best.

At least the US has at least a handful of themes to choose from among its many states.
