For the first time since the 1930s, more people left the US than entered it According to the WSJ, the situation has not been observed since the Great Depression - the publication notes that for some Americans, the "new American dream" now lies in living outside the country.

The new American dream, for some of its citizens, is to no longer live there. In nearly all of the European Union’s 27 member states, the number of Americans arriving to live and work is at a record and rising. Even Albania is now flooded with American migrants. A Gallup poll
