    These kinds of questions, aimed at any ideology, will result in a “no” for the average person unless they can take their friends and families with them.

        The bulk of that immigration happened in the 19th and early 20th century when European countries were the most capitalistic and economically stratified.

          Economically stratified, absolutely. Capitalistic, though? Most European immigration to the Americas happened when kings and queens still wielded absolute power.

        I feel like a lot of redditors are joining because I see a lot of down votes but only one response.

        Yes that is true, but the average person in those countries in the 1800’s was starving which changes things a lot.

        I took your question as “people living in the US or Europe, would you move to a socialist country” so the average person in that would not be starving, so family and friends matter more.
