Apparently rich people say they want to leave the USA because of taxes

42. very true

America is the only country in the world that wants all those born in America and those who are born to Americans even they were not born in America to pay taxes until they die...even if they do not earn a penny in america.. I know a woman in her 80s
who came to Canada in 64...with her 4 kids...and husband and had two more here in Canada.

She has never filed an American income tax since she came up here. She still does not have Cdn citizenship. She has an American passport only...She has two kids living in America now, and 3 living in Canada, one died in Texas from a gun accident.
2 living in Canada are born here. One living here was born in the states but he has no american passport nor canadian papers, not even landed papers. Wow.....That is such a big dilemma because the two kids up here have kids and those kids are on the wanted list now. It is extremely expensive to sort this out and to have to pay penalties to boot...It could be in the thousands to 20k to sort it out. I also would like to add she is far from rich...lives on only about 1200 a month.

She is quite worried because she is a little fish...and they are easier to catch than the big fish like Romney. She is not the only one.
Another senior club member married a Canadian about 15 years ago. She is not Canadian and only has an American passport and never paid America taxes since she came up here.. She came up to me and said she didn't get her pension from her employer where she worked since she turned 65 last June...guess what....her employer is Georgia Pacific...the Koch brother.

I wished her luck..
