“Do these folks sound like tax evaders? Well, they do to ‘homelanders’ and their congressional representatives.

If you expatriate, you won’t bleed to death, and despite mainstream American attitudes, you probably won’t get burned at the stake. But there are significant consequences – even if the rationale upon which they are based is as misguided as assuming that the sun and stars revolve around the Earth.”
