True, but if their need for socks are not adequately met, they will migrate on.
If there's any smart university women wanting to leave, my city apparently has a decent university. Wink wink.

LOL you mean Europe willingly taking in refugees? What are you Smoking?
Financial experts are seeing a spike in affluent working Americans looking to resettle in Europe.
Arielle Tucker is the founder of Connected Financial Planning, a company that helps Americans relocate to Europe.
Tucker received more than 30 new American clients in the week after Trumpโs reelection, a level of interest thatโs been sustained throughout the last few months.
Many of Tuckerโs clients are in their mid-30s or early 40s and work in executive roles in tech, pharmaceuticals or finance.
Yet again, the average working-class person is left behind to suffer the worst effects of the policies that these people largely voted for and now cowardly run from.
I don't think all or even most of the affluent 30-40 year olds with executive roles in tech, pharmaceuticals or finance voted for Trump. The ones that did vote Trump are quite likely still fond of him.
Europe barely has sufficient capacity to engage its own educated labor, you think importing America's surplus is a good idea?
The article does a poor job explaining why people smart enough to want to leave Trump's America world contribute to a "brain drain".
The dumb Americans are currently more proud and happy than they've ever been, and they will not be attempting to migrate to Europe.
I hope everybody that can leave will leave. Sadly, I am stuck here because my dumb ass just retired and even if I was not retired I doubt any country in Europe would want a dude with a Masters in English and MFA in creative writing. I guess I will just sit up here in WNC and watch it all burn. At least I have everything paid for. Good luck, everyone, as the markets open to a dumpster fire today.
If you're done with seeing everything burn you could consider moving to a place in the US where less stuff is on fire. Also, the flames might inspire you to do some real good writing, who knows.
As long as one of the entry requirements is proof of an average IQ-level and the presence of critical thinking skills, sure
As long they have a university degree they should probably be fine. The red MAGA hats have a tendency to hate education.
Any discussion of brain drain has the assumption baked in that only affluent people will be able to get in. "You're not educated? Back to burgerland with you!"
Can uneducated US citizens get an EU work permission?
I don't know. Couldn't you technically fly to the EU on a tourist visa and claim asylum? If the EU has travel advisory for trans people, it seems like it should be a thing, but I am probably way too hopeful there.
Sadly so far claiming asylum in an EU country hasnโt worked yet for US trans people as far as I am aware. Also if an asylum claim is denied you will be sent back and barred from re-entry and work visas for a while. Itโs not an application anyone should make lightly. Wish it were different. Maybe give it another few months and maybe theyโll stop being so worried about annoying the Cheeto and they will let beurocracy catch up with reality.
Iโm not sure if they would get that many. Itโs definitely tempting and could be more realistic if it continues to get worse in the US, but isnโt the EU hurting more from all this than the US is?
The American economy is like a classic Ford Mustang. It goes really hard on the straights, but if you run into something you crash hard.
The European economy is like a Volvo. It's not really fast, not that maneuverable, but full of seatbelts, airbags and crumple zones so if you hit something you probably walk away.
Paraphrased from Mark Blyth.
I do NOT want to be overrun by degenerate yanks, thank you very much
Don't worry, the degenerates don't want to leave. They're happy with how things are going.
Doubtful the UK will be first choice for many Americans after it neutered itself with Brexit.
