How does one become a welder? I'm already mind-fucked by IT, it's time to change careers

I'd aim for countries that have few American immigrants, like Eastern Europe, South America, anywhere but Thailand and Japan in Asia... Of course avoid those actively hostile to Americans.
Alternatively somewhere English-speaking so you'd barely stand out - Canada, UK, Australia
Actually most countries in the world have little American immigration. Avoid Spain, Portugal, Mexico, Thailand, Japan, most small Caribbean countries (I guess). The stereotypical "expat" places.
It's like any kind of immigration. A small number is always welcome, but once many immigrants of the same origin come you get social cohesion issues.
In person interaction is infinitely superior to anything done online. "Meeting" people online just doesn't hit the same, even with video calls.
Reducing the number of false accusations. Prevents situations like someone claiming "Xyz stole my car 30 years ago, arrest them!".
Lack of evidence. It's almost impossible to definitively prove something that happened long ago to the level of reasonable doubt required by courts.
Relevance. Theft from 30 years ago has no bearing on anyone's life any more. For same reason the statute of limitations usually doesn't exist for murder. Murder from 30 years ago still impacts people today.
Yes you're right. But it was connected with the December date. It was the first youtube video to achieve 1 billion views on or around Dec 12, when the apocalypse was prophesied.
The Mayan one in 2012 was pretty good, I really enjoyed it. It ended with the masterpiece that is Gangnam Style.
Healthcare is the only thing Cuba used to do well. How did they fuck it up so much?
Edit: Read the article. It's an epidemic of a new disease (for Cuba). Any healthcare system would be overwhelmed. And the article is seriously overdramatic. I'm not making light of real people who are actually dying, but the article tone is jarringly melodramatic.
