If you are Americans, why do you choose to live outside the USA? Is it business?
 
   Partly! My wife is French and the only child of aging parents. A little over thirty years ago she talked me into coming to France. I had recently gotten out of the Marines and was just spinning my wheels in California. I came to France with a little over $8,000 , a new (1979) Harley-Davidson Super Glide, and a monthly VAComp check. We opened a small brasserie and introduced the locals to chili. Over the years we added other bars and some small hotels and restaurants. Yes it is possible to prosper even when you are governed by socialists (but it's harder). I have always intended to move back to the US but there was always something holding me back. Right now it is my youngest. My son is fifteen, and in the French equivalent of the 10th grade, so it looks like I'll be here for a few more years at least.
