It's already happening, there's been a deluge of affluent people leaving the US.

We're still at the stage where it takes considerable privilege to just leave everything behind and pay the exit extortion (40% of all your shit).

Once things get worse and people have nothing to leave behind you'll start seeing the engineers/doctors escaping.
