    Plus who knows what the requirements will be in four years, maybe energy star will be reinstated?

      At this point, it’s probably wise not to count on the “in four years” idea that Trump will willingly step aside and allow someone else to be President. And even if we get lucky and he dies before that time, his successor is much younger and just as emboldened as Trump.

      To paraphrase the old saying, “Hide yo kids, hide yo couch!”

        I’m still planning on leaving the country, but I think it’s okay to have some hope in the meantime

          What makes you think you’ll be able to leave?

          I hope you have dual citizenship because that’s pretty much your only path at this point.

          • Why is the response to someone voicing their desire to leave always the same pessimistic dead end response?

            I’ve read dozens if not hundreds of responses like yours. I’m leaving this week. Yes it’s hard but it’s not impossible.
