        It‘s warm and beautiful until you need a doctor. Then it‘s just underdeveloped or overpriced and you come crawling back. There never has been an exodus of the rich specifically.

        Which makes perfect sense sense once you realize this system they threaten to move out of is what made them rich. They‘re economic winners. Why would they suddenly leave to some foreign place where things are uncertain? Chaos is only a ladder for those at the bottom.

      The people being talked about? Somewhere else in the EU with higher wages, lower cost of living or lower taxes, in some combination.

      Denmark, the Netherlands for pay, Eastern EU for CoL for example.

      Monaco. No income taxes, full of sports assholes evading taxes on their 20 million euro contracts.

    Germany should tighten its laws; it is quite easy to first leave Germany, pay no German tax or contribute in any other way, and then return again when it is opportune (e.g. when you get old or sick and want to use the German benefits).
