like rats running from a sinking ship, the people are leaving this rotten country.
NEW YORK - He’s
an all-American
movie star, but
Tom Cruise said
his children will be making All
the Right Moves - by moving out
of America.
“I think the U.S. is terrifying and it
saddens me,” he told the British
paper the Daily Express. “You only
have to look at the state of affairs in
America.”
At the Minority Report premiere
Cruise, who is known for his role in
the Mission Impossible flicks as a
slick superagent for Truth, Justice
and the American way, said his
adopted children Isabella, 9, and
Connor, 7, will grow up outside the
United States. They will probably be
raised in Australia, his ex-wife
Nicole Kidman’s homeland.
Cruise, whose character became
similarly disillusioned with America
in Born on the Fourth of July, said
raising children in the U.S. is a risky
business. He said he could no longer
keep his 'eyes wide shut' to
America's terrorism threat, crime,
faltering financial status and
corporate corruption.
"I do worry about my children. As a
parent you are always concerned," he
told the paper. "I just want them to
be in a place where they are going to
be strong enough to make the right
choices. Unfortunately, we're in a
position where people are so
irresponsible that human life holds
such little value to them."
