Bill Gates is building a huge development in Costa Rica. Maybe you should understand that the productive people of this country would leave in a moment if offered more freedom. In the future those governments that offer freedom to people will prosper. Years ago Canada was in the top 7 countries of the world in wealth. Today it has fallen to around 30th place. What it did was grow government and entitlement programs and escalated taxes and social redistribution of wealth (of course without the redistribution of work or effort). Many of the productive people fled to the US. My uncle a very successful doctor left Canada along with scores of others.
If the US is bent on becoming another Canada watch the brain drain out of the US
