graduation gap between boys and girls is nearly the same as between

Lie. Wealth only decreases during economic downturns and they have to
be extremely severe to result in any significant wealth loss. We are
not in an economic downturn.
In the most severe economic downturn since the Great Depression
(2008), the US only lost $2 trillion and that was the only net decline
in wealth in the US since the late eighties. 2007 Q4 wealth was $11 >trillion. 2008 Q4 wealth was $9 trillion. That is, in the biggest
downturn in eighty years, the US only lost 2 trillion and every penny
of that was restored over the next nine quarters - just over two
years. 2011 Q1 was $11 trillion. >https://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/z1/dataviz/dfa/distribute/table/
In 2022, America's total current wealth is $24 trillion.

Wow! A cite! I'm impressed!
The problem isn't a government one. As conservatives want us to
believe, business is none of the government's business.
The primary driver of grid failure is the private market wherein
private generation companies sell power wholesale to local
distributors. The grid isn't the generators responsibility and the
retailers are running on such thin margins that they aren't making the
needed investments either.
When I lived in Texas twenty some years ago, there was much debate
about switching to the private market model. Eventually this was
done. Mailers went out and consumers had to choose the "retailer"
they would buy their power from over the common grid and Texas
especially has had trouble with outages almost ever since.
Georgia, where I've lived most of my life, has private power companies
as well, but they are closely regulated by the Georgia Public Service >Commission. Rate changes, construction projects and grid maintenance
and enhancement are overseen by government regulators.
So, how are we going to force hundreds of private energy companies to
upgrade the grid?

That article references a Washington Post article as its source. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2022/12/23/american-emigrants/
and according to that WAPO article, everything you've said about
emigration is wrong.
.. People are moving out of the United States ..
The number of people moving out of the United States is on the rise.
In fact, nearly 22 million Americans have moved to other countries
since 2020.
The number given by Newsbreak's "source", the WAPO is 2.8 million
TOTAL, not 22 million in two years.
So, what's driving this trend? ..
- Economic Concerns ..
- Political Instability ..
- Gun Violence ..
- Income Inequality ..
- Lack of Social Mobility ..
None of these are given by the WAPO source article as reasons for expatriation. Your Newsbreak article is, in fact, a pack of lies.

"On the morning of June 27, Julie Schäfer logged into her work

Elseven in Düsseldorf often helps Americans obtain dual citizenship in Germany, and that Monday morning, she scrolled and scrolled and kept scrolling. A flood of more than 300 inquiries had piled up in the
