Not much different, then, from you or me.  I mean, gosh, if I had my lifestyle threatened and a neighbouring country appeared to offer an option, what would I do?  What would YOU do?  Sit around and say, "Darn it, I know I'm gonna be under-employed, the target of some discrimination, forced to live lean and mean, definitely be a 2nd class citizen...but OK, I'll suck it up."??
