Re: record number of americans renounce their citizenship to avoid paying taxes
 
but they already impose an exit tax on rich people who give up citizenship and if they impose the 30% capital gains on American interests they have, they will just move that money out of the USA. As for barring them from the US, I am sure they will find plenty of other places to stay. Just stupid!

An "outrage" they say, you either believe in free movement, and competitive markets or you don't.

SATXJ alerted me to the fact that the Democrats are the bad guys on this issue. As a result, I've resigned from the Coastal Elitist Club, tipped all my French Wine down the sink, and I've bought a TV and an assault rifle. And a picture by the Painter of Light.
