i live in manchester england and its so depressing to look at the news now. with the high crime rates, violence, the culture of drink and violence that exists. gangs of youths everywhere in large numbers. thugery. knife crime. i really would like to get away so much, to live in nice surroundings. i would like to emmegrate to the states so much because the grass looks greener there, with a nice life that you can get for yourself. and the americans to me are alot more caring people. but in a way i feel trapped here, doomed to go down with the sinking ship, i dont know if my depression is making me feel this way. but i feel a dread i dont want to stay here for the duration. i feel trapped because i have mental heath difficulties that im trying to work through, i have a social worker and ive been refer to a psychotherapist. and i feel i need this help until i can stand on my own to feet and be self sufficiant. so because i need their help i feel trapped where iam, im 29 &want so much more.

and all this while, i thought you English quite civil.
thuggery, knife crime, cut-purses, oh my!
would you consider moving to Devonshire instead and work for me as a valet? i reside in Pemberley, with my sister Georgiana. and i am soon to be married to Miss Elizabeth.
you can take the public transport to Lambton. i shall send my manservant to meet you there in my barouche.
good day...and God save the queen.

You have been looking at too much telly I think ... the grass is certainly not greener in the U.S. ... and think of this, which is something most people from Britain always forget ... you PAY, and you pay dearly, for health care over here ... no such thing as the NHS, so unless you have plenty of money, don't get sick! We have plenty of crimes here too, depending on where you live ... some parts of the U.S. are very beautiful, and some are absolutely hell holes ... just like everywhere else ... if you really feel trapped in Manchester, why not go somewhere else in the British Isles?? You are not confined to Manchester you know ... you could go South, if you could afford it ... or to Scotland ... or even Northern Ireland, which is now very peaceful and beautiful ... you really shouldnt even consider coming to the U.S. if you're not self sufficient already ... honestly ...

Life in AMerica can be better, but not for everyone. It's definitely better if you are rich, which less and less people here are. We hear statistics that life is better in England! There is so much crime here, and a lot of people are really materialistic. Big business rules everything, even the government. Yes, there is a decent economy and if you work really hard you might be able to get a house, but if you get into a cycle of poverty it is really hard to get out. Our middle class is shrinking, and more and more people live under the poverty line. Why don't you move to a better neighborhood in England? It will be easier and cheaper for you, and you won't have to deal with any immigration issues.
