I think you need to realize that you say it's horribly dumb to move but you don't even bother to understand circumstances.

For those who absolutely have NO CHOICE - this would be understandable. In small towns away from any major economic center you will have young people who absolutely have to move for a job or else. This happens all over the world. But this is not the case of MOST Americans who move.
Lots of them just apply for jobs across country to get what they perceive to be "the best deal" instead of focusing on the region they are from to stay close to family.
Many move because... that's what Americans do. Then HAVE AT IT!

But let's face it...this is a discussion similar to the one about divorce. Superficial lay beliefs tend to assume that all divorces happen because of something horrific happening in the marriage, something like violence or abuse as opposed to frivolous feelings of "I don't quite feel it anymore, I need to find myself, I found someone else better, I am not quite happy anymore".
