You missed my point, but yes. I am well aware it is a privilege and that many cannot leave. That said, the barrier isn't as high as you might think. My childhood friend is a Florida school teacher. Low pay , high debt and bankrupt twice. She's leaving at the end of the year and already has a job lined up. My cousin with a government job is taking a position in Germany. The middle class can leave fairly easily.
