Just Go To Russia Already

Memo to all you right-wingers talking about "Going Galt" by quitting your jobs and leaving the country: just friggin' do it already.
Give Russia a try. It is just the sort of right-wing, pro-private sector country with lots of wide open spaces that you would love.
You have destroyed five million jobs and are trying to cause another eight million people to lose their homes. The jobs you quit, and the homes you leave, could be put to better use by the people who you made unemployed and homeless.
You titans of industry did such a bang-up job running the country, that I am sure we will struggle without you. However, it is no less than we deserve. After all, it was our own irresponsibility, not yours, that led to this crisis. We no longer deserve to share a country with people who are so utterly superior to us in every way.
If Russia isn't to your liking, and you would prefer a small island nation like the original John Galt, then maybe you could try Singapore. It is pretty right-wing and pro-capitalist. Give it a shot.
Just do it already. The only thing more irritating than people who are constantly threatening to leave the country but never actually leave are when people who actively destroyed the country are threatening to leave but never actually do. You already shat on us, now either get off the pot or stop talking about getting off the pot.
So seriously, just go to Russia already. You have no idea how long this left-winger has been waiting to tell you right-wingers to do that.

There are that many things wrong in the OP that it is either satire - or someone that is stupid beyond words.

2. Thinking that the 30% or so that makes up the reich wing gives the rest of us a job or something
really is a stretch.
I am sure if they all fell off the earth tomorrow none of us would know except for the fact that we wouldn't have to hear their bull shit anymore.
When you show up at late for work on harvest day, you're in for a rude shock.

I've heard reference to this "Going Galt" but I doubt it involves more than a handful of people in the whole country. Now, there's quite a few of us who are going to do what we need to do over the next 4 years to take care of our families in these difficult times, ignoring the requests of Hussein while doing so, knowing that he's worthless and doesn't care about anyone but himself. But leave the country? Nope.

Unless you needed medical care, needed something engineered, built, delivered, or needed energy. Can we take our money with us, leaving you to languish in you own sloth and ignorance-induced squalor?

This is a new one on me! Why would anyone leave America because of the election of a temporary leader? Besides, someone has to keep an eye on things. They'll reach too far. They always do. Politics is a stupid reason to leave your country. Who the hell is saying this?

It's not hard to believe when you consider that these people probably think N. Korea is a right wing country.

Oh they don't have enough ambition for that. They'll seethe and rage like good little keyboard warriors but it won't go any further than that. After bitching about Republicans, Bush, Rush, the Military they simply don't have the energy to slice their wrists.
