Any European who insists that he doesn't care about nationalism is a bare-faced liar. He only says it so that he can act snooty and stuck-up around Americans.
Different strokes. Lots of people up and leave their country in a heartbeat and then turn out to be perfectly happy or maybe even like it more there. Are Americans typically proud of the state they live in?

A lot of that is working and trading with totalitarian regimes. I suppose it's fair to criticize the US for doing so but the same is true of most other first world countries. The EU is happily trading with Vietnam for instance.

The Soviets literally had to wall their people in because they were leaving. Of course you're right more people are leaving now than when they couldn't leave.
