    Default Eduardo Saverin

    I am so happy to see that someone has finally done what conservative economists spent years warning us about. In the ever increasing "Global Society" rich americans will leave to protect themselves from agregious taxes. Cudos to you Mr. Saverin.

    Facebook Co-founder leaves

    If any of you don't know, he is the cofounder of Facebook.

    Anyway, I'm a fan. Discuss.

    Europeans have Monaco.
    Others can just get a residency (green card) at some other country.

    We are screwed. Even if we get a residency (green card) and live somewhere else, I believe we are not immune to US tax law.

    Not a fan.

    The guy renounced citizenship from the greatest country the world has ever known so he can save a percentage on an already vast wealth.

    Fuck him. I hope the door hits him in the ass on the way out and whatever country he ends up in falls to barbarian raiders so he can fully understand what his taxes were paying for.

    Are we over taxed? Yes. But that guy is a piece of #$&%.

    Another reason he probably did it is , because he wanted to away from Mark Zuckerberg as far as he can.

    He didn't want to be in the one percent that the Occupy Wall St people are mad at. Good for him. Half the population pays no tax at all. I think he's good. Still appears ungrateful.

    He doesn't live here and is going to live in another country for the rest of his life. Why wouldn't he take citizenship where he plans to live? If I moved to a different country and put down roots, I would probably do the same thing. Of course, I wouldn't move to a different country.

    Sen. Schumer (Douchebag NY) has proposed legislation to attempt to levy a 30% tax on people who renounce their US citizenship. Schumer thinks that making the United States more like a banana republic is the answer to the idea that United States citizenship has lost its appeal to people like Saverin - rather than figuring out what it would take to restore the attraction of US citizenship.
