What do you mean abroad? I don't think anyone is considering moving to the USA. But maybe you mean a different country?

Year Europeans Obtaining U.S. Lawful Permanent Resident Status 2014 83,270 2015 85,800 2016 93,570 2017 84,340 2018 80,020 2019 87,600 2020 68,990 2021 61,520 2022 75,610 2023 80,280 Yup, definitely looks like no Europeans have ever considered moving to the US...

76,221 Americana moved to the EU in 2022.

So in fact there was a net migration out of the US and to the EU.

"Draft changes would create new exceptions for AI companies that would allow them to legally process special categories of data (like a person’s religious or political beliefs, ethnicity or health data) to train and operate their tech." Fully anonymized health data I can somehow understand, but what kind of AI needs to be trained with "a person's religious or political beliefs [or] ethnicity", anonymized or not?

> but what kind of AI needs to be trained with "a person's religious or political beliefs [or] ethnicity"

Propaganda AI. The EU openly declared that it will create a ministry of truth. Officially called 'fighting disinformation' of course.

I think I do, as in I'm pretty sure I've never ever voted for this European Commission thing, neither has any other EU citizen that I know of, and yet they're running the whole show here in Europe. If if walks and quacks like a duck it most certainly is a duck. Granted, they don't have North Korea's interesting military parades, I'll give them that. Later edit: I think you might me on the wrong understanding path by…

You've voted for the people who elect the European Commission, though I'm sure you know that, just conveniently decided to leave it out, you're a known troll on Reddit too.

> You've voted for the people who elect the European Commission

And they 'magically' approved a short list of US-lobby-backed unelected personas for leadership positions, who are pushing everything ranging from the chat control law to this privacy-killing 'deregulation', while ruining Eu's trade relationships with everyone from China to Africa to boot.

"I don't think anyone" - means zero, not "almost no one" - you yourself should probably study English some more.

And... let's put it this way - there are far fewer than 80,000 people who drive the growth of either the US or EU economy in non-linear ways. If 80,000 of the "wrong" (most positively impactful) people move from the EU to US, that's a big deal.

I'm pretty sure that I didn't implement any such policies. Did you implement the Third Reich's policies, sir?

There are apparently also stories that I've made up. Interesting. How's that mind-reading technology coming along?

Yep - I saw those numbers too. But they're irrelevant to the OP's comment that no one is moving to the US.

Really only finding a way to match almost every negative US stereotype possible here. I feel like I lost brain cells just reading it. This is that famous education system in action.

I genuinely laughed when I read this. Like you had set up an argument in your mind where if even one person moved from the EU to the US you were going to be right and the best part is I don’t think you’re joking like you actually believed this. Back in the real world though everyone understands that 99.9% means everyone.

But sure, do go on telling people to “learn English better” while you proudly continue on through life with a first grade reading comprehension and math skills.

Typical. Make an argument. Be proven wrong. Lash out at the terrible US education system (which, of course, has most of the best universities in the world and to which many foreign people spend collectively billions of dollars to attend.) Goodbye.

MALA: Make America Literate Again.

P.S which one is it? The best in the world or terrible? You didn’t seem to be able to hold a coherent thought for a full sentence. Between this and an inability to understand the advanced statistical concept of percentages I can’t help but think that things aren’t going particularly well for you at the moment.

Incels in their 20s already scream they feel mistreated and don't want to hold the social construct. Let's fix the pyramid by importing more people on boats. Maybe they'll work for us.

Thanks. It feels refreshing to see fascists hiding behind throwaways again.

You’re absolutely adorable—and it’s obvious you’ve already got it all figured out.

Who's going to pay your pension. Hopefully you have 10 kids. They all want free money, no work, more perks. But who pays for it... maybe "the state". We're pricing ourselves out of the market and guys like the one above clap. Crazy world.

Who is going to pay the pension for 60-70% of Americans who live paycheck to paycheck with not even US$ 1000 in the bank for emergencies?

Who even cares about that? We're not discussing Americans at all.
