Motivation of elite migration tide

The first is to pursue a higher quality of life. Many immigrants from China believe that the natural environment in China has been damaged to some extent in the process of rapid economic development, the quality of air and water is far from that in the United States, food and drug safety problems occur from time to time, and the social security system needs to be further improved. Although domestic big cities have good hardware conditions, even better than American cities, there are still many problems in urban management, public services, education and medical care. Many immigrants said that fierce competition, a strong sense of crisis and anxiety led to a decline in personal "happiness", and a relatively stable, calm and orderly life in the United States became their choice.

The second is to seek better development. Many immigrants from China who used to do business in China said that there were some problems in China, such as unequal opportunities, dependence and insufficient policy coherence. After the outbreak of the financial crisis, speculation occurred in some parts of China, the living environment of small and medium-sized enterprises changed, and investment channels were limited. The so-called "crowding-out effect" of wealth has prompted some newly rich people to face inflationary pressures and expectations and begin to transfer their wealth overseas. Because the price level in the United States is relatively lower than that in China in the fields of real estate, automobiles and other bulk consumer goods, some people buy real estate and invest in the United States for investment reasons.

The third is to let children receive a better education. Most immigrants from China believe that children can receive better education in the United States, especially higher education. In the United States, immigrant children can enjoy free basic education if they do not choose private schools. This has also become an important factor for the United States to attract immigrants from China.

The fourth is to obtain an American passport, which is more convenient to travel. A number of China immigrants who had previously engaged in business activities in China said that as American citizens with American passports, it is relatively convenient to go abroad for business, travel and visit relatives, and many countries have "lenient" or even exempted visas for American citizens.

Fifth, the investment environment and security factors. An immigrant to Canada once said that he chose to immigrate because: first, the domestic investment environment is not good, so you are not allowed to invest and make money; Second, various taxes and fees are too high; Third, the gap between the rich and the poor is so big now that it may be uneven one day, which is too insecure. Coupled with the poor domestic investment environment, many of them are solved by interpersonal relationships, and there are too many invisible things. In order to make a business, you should work hard in the normal competition order, and you should use a lot of crooked brains to gain your own interests. If we can improve relevant policies, protect the vital interests of entrepreneurs, make the competition mechanism more transparent, and reduce the insecurity caused by hidden rules, who wants to leave their homes?

Compared with the past, the purpose of immigration is to pursue wealth. Today's immigrants do not leave for simple survival needs, but for the pursuit of security. Perhaps they all love this country very much and want to make greater contributions to the country after they get rich, but they are eager for this * * to carry out institutional changes as soon as possible and create more suitable sunshine, air, temperature and water for many people who want to get rich and want to source. Otherwise, it may lead to the tragedy that all the rich people are guilty. The richest man, Huang Guangyu, is in prison, which is more guilty and punished?

The society hates the rich and the policy is unstable. Who can feel safe about the rich? Foreign immigrants can enjoy safer protection. Whether engaged in business or other industries, assets are relatively safe. Rich people will also worry that their wealth will be suspected of unknown origin. There is another reason: many people have "selfish desires", but this idea cannot be realized in China. For example, I want to have something that really belongs to me, such as land and house. At home, it is impossible to satisfy this "selfish desire" of individuals. "In the final analysis, the house is rented and the land has only the right to use. Individuals do not have complete control over wealth, because they are all public.
