13. That is what everyone says now

It is so incredible and hard to believe that people think I am making this up.
It is the real deal. What gets me that countries are so afraid of losing money that they are signing up even thought the USA congressman POsey wrote the treasury that the US government and banks will not reciprocate.

Now Germany is thinking of changing to a citizen based taxation like the USA. 193 countries in the world are resident based taxation. What this means is that there will be no emigrating, no investments other than the country you live in as a citizen.

One government ...and how long will the USA stay the power in charge? China is licking for the position of number one. and then what? you want the Chinese looking at your bank accounts?
