Excuse me? would you like to cite any census statistics that support your claim? Roughly 5000 Americans a year relinquish their citizenship and roughly 9 million Americans total live abroad (but most of them are temporarily abroad) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Article 2 emphasizes that Americans living abroad likely do so for reasons other than disliking the current political climate. Article 3 points out that many people who renounce their citizenship are among those already living abroad (and that it's a tax reason). Article 6 is pretty good - but it just says people want to leave (and not that any meaningful number follow through on this). The rest of the articles are wholly based on anecdotes and aren't evidence of a trend. I'm not interested in discussing this further, but I'd like it if anyone had any content on topic though. What else have people found in the capital plan and what is its status? Edited October 9, 2019 by andreww 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
