There are a minority of Chinese and Indian immigrants who go back to their countries of origin to live. It's cultural fit, cost of living... If you have 6 or 7 figures amassed in Dollars you can live really like a king. Not pollution though!

I like Trump because he's taking on the people that need to be taken on. And trying to help those who have suffered from the self dealing of the US elite ruling class.

But I can't disagree with the points in this thread. Obama had a tough economy and Trump is on the other side of it. Nevertheless, they have each affected the results too. The deficits matter. Or, they will at some point. Nobody gets elected on cutting spending, so the incentives are there to run ever-bigger deficits.
