It wouldn't be happening if, like every other country on the face of the globe, except Eritrea, the US didn't tax foreign-source income earned while residing abroad.  The rich would stay US citizens and live as expats wherever they fancied, paying personal taxes where they live.

Somehow being in a club whose only other member is a little African Stalinist hell-hole is not something we should be happy about.
And when they behead your own people in the wars which are to come, then you will know what this was all about.

Not if they decide to confiscate (steal) 401 k's. I'll take my chances.

@catfish1957

Well,the Chicoms would never even dream of confiscating property/wealth from someone else. Good call!
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!

Weighing the options of an imminent threat versus a potential one?  I'll opt toward caution every time.

And BTW, I've paid $1.7M to the IRS in my lifetime, and my government is $30T in debt?

You've gone off on the silly train man.....

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

Watched Tucker Carlson this last week, haven't you?   :cool:
If forced (aka 401K confiscation), I've had my eye on Australia or NZ. Gun laws suck though.

Yes, I noticed that!

Don't know about migrating in to Australia, but I hear that it is really tough to get accepted into NZ.

Hungary allows dual citizenship so being the child of two Hungarian citizens I could become a Hungarian citizen without jumping through the normal hoops. Of course I have no wealth to speak of so no reason to run.

You are fortunate.  You may need to emigrate there someday just to live a "normal" life as you may be accustomed.   :shrug:

You are right, they must have tightened up recently.  I am close to not making the age 65 requirement
