We'd love to fix what we've got if that were a reasonable option. For most people, it's not.

See, politics are so broken here that it's really just a dick measuring contest to see who can wax the best poetic. And then even when we do get a decent president—because let's be clear, Biden isn't a good president—they often cater to corporations long before they even think about making things better for the working people.

At this point, fixing our political system would require either:

1. A voting miracle, voting not on party lines but on the actual merits of the candidates, or at least voting for the actual best candidate in the primary of the "least" evil party.
2. A revolution, either through ratification of a new constitution or actual war.

Most people in America are too uninformed for number one to be realistic within less than an entire generation. Sure, newer generations are far more informed and are actually changing the voting landscape in some ways, but it's not going to be enough to change everything while we've still got boomers voting for politicians who don't have their best interests in mind. It will take years, if not decades, to get that far.

Meanwhile, most people don't want to be involved in a revolution. Even if everything is peaceful (which it likely wouldn't be), and we're able to ratify the new constitution without many issues (which there would be a ton of), that still leaves us with a tumultuous period of transition. Not many people would really want to live through that. I admit that most people probably would because there's not much of a better choice during that transition, but I guarantee there would be a huge spike in emigration from the United States.

Moving to Europe or Canada is just the best option for a lot of Americans who feel they can't deal anymore with our broken politics, substandard workers' rights, and/or dwindling human rights for LGBTQ people. My family has tossed the idea around of moving to Canada, since it's close, or even Germany despite the fact that my husband and partner make decent money. We just can't keep up sometimes, and as a polyamorous household of three AMAB people, two of whom are married, we're worried for our rights, too.

For most people, moving to a different country is a fresh start, and the majority of them will do their utmost to make sure they respect the country they come into. There will always be some that don't, especially when they're coming from a country like America, but for the most part, all we want is basic rights that other people have and not having to worry about putting food on the table some days.
