Prosecution is considering charging the parents of the student that committed the school shooting in Michigan. The parents just bought the gun and if the parents were negligent in storing / locking up the gun I think this is a very reasonable move.
I don't think parents are responsible when the school shooter gets the weapons outside of the house or when the parents have made a minimum effort to secure their weapons. But the school had just met with them on son's behavior too.
Thoughts?

Generally yes but they come without job protections and a much higher cost of living.
High risk, high reward.
Salaries are higher in the US, but we have no worker protections (Google “at will employee”) and you’re on your own in terms of social services, meaning you pay for healthcare, childcare, elder care, etc. it’s not subsidized via tax dollars. Your employer may subsidize a portion of your healthcare but it’s not much. And there’s no guaranteed amount of time off; it varies based on employer and how much you negotiate. It’s live to work, not work to live mentality.
All that said, it’s not really worth it to me but depends on the kind of life you want.
30-40% higher on average.
My understanding is salaries are generally like 1/2 or less of what they pay here.

FACD 1 is probably American (thinking they are the center of the world and assuming you must know that).
The work life balance is utterly different. Same for in-office culture. In the US, one of the agency CEOs says they no longer say “work life balance” and just “work life integration”. You shouldn’t expect much life. Very late nights on a regular bases and weekends are common. Not unheard of for someone to clock 80 hrs week.
