Anything is better than home

Everybody seems to know somebody who immigrated. There are stories about people movingeverywhere. In every place some families sold their possessions in order to go somewhere else. But why do people never seem to like the place the are born in.
Rather than dissing immigration (not saying anyone is) people should be asking just why all those who come to a country decided to leave their former countries? What was so bad there that they had to leave. There are problems in every country and it certainly isn't all peeled grapes and bonbons in the new country. But perhaps we think that the grass is greener on the other side of the fence. Sometimes it's true.
