Almost 50% Increase In Americans Renouncing Citizenship Because Of FATCA



There was nearly a 50% jump in the number of Americans rushing to renounce their citizenship. It is more than just not paying taxes, the FATCA rules are so outrageous, Americans have been thrown out of everywhere from Asia to Europe. Plain and simple, FATCA is destroying the American capability to deal internationally. People who even had one parent who was American makes them American and they are unable to have a bank account in their own country even though they never lived in America.



FATCA is the worst law I have ever seen for its impact is wiping out international commerce and I dare say it is a leading cause of the collapse in global liquidity. This law PRESUMES any American doing anything outside the USA must be fraud and is only doing so to hide taxes. Wait til Hillary comes in – OMG! What havoc she will wrought upon the world economy with her anti-business idea that only government creates jobs. This is like PRESUMING everyone in government should just be entitled to the lofty address HONORABLE. That’s why they are exempt from the same laws for they are above the rest of us

Does this mean the total has gone from 6 to 9?

How many are citizens by circumstance only? Born there during their parents vacation but have never lived in the US?

Tax compliance is a terrible thing. Rules relating to such are pure evil.

Follow PM Martin's Steamships, they all seem to find harbors with relaxed tax laws. A good finance minister knows stuff like that so look at is as beng advice from a pro.

We need a healthy tax base. Those ragheads ain't gonna kill themselves.

No. . . wait. . .
Get them to deposit in Yankee banks and the Yankees move their money off shore and then tank the banks with the OPEC money still inside and then blame them for making you have to take steps like that and to fix it will require forfeiting all deposits.
