In the post war years America appeared a land of bright colors. A deep contrast with the gray of Brittan. And Europe as it struggled with poverty and post war debts. In family terms America was the cousin who had made good in spectacular fashion and was now visiting the run down ancestral home. There was affection for and interest in this brash ,new go getting world. With its apparently endless novelties. But everything grows old in time. The cousin aged ,changed and grew. And the family get togethers in Europe are starting show the strains. Its a sad story but there is no use pretending it hasn't happened.

This soldier is part of a dying breed of Americans. Americans who stand for the fundamentals created by our forefathers pre-WW2. If President Eisenhower saw all of the things that America is doing, the things that the allied forces and the Soviet Union fought so hard to defeat, racism, ethnic cleansing, genocide, he would most certainly turn over in his grave. Those of us who ARE alive and smart enough to see what's REALLY going on are doing our best to cope with these bad times and have been, are, and will be doing everything we can to defeat this situation. Today I appealed my rejection by the Russian Migration Service concerning my application for refugee status in the Russian Federation. I encourage every American reading this to take the initiative and to do everything you can, up to and including seeking political asylum in the Russian Federation and the People's Republic of China. These two countries have the ability to make a difference in the world and to police the crooked activities that America and it's allies are currently engaged in. It's worth it to do business with these two countries and not with America and it's supporting cast of fools. It's critical that we the people maintain the level and the mindset of America and the World that we were so fortunate to live through during the Clinton years. Get started today!

As a USA citizen my tax $ are being used to perform atrocities throughout the world as well as on its own people. My country has sold itself and its people into slavery and I am not happy with it nor do I support the crimes against humanity that my country is perpetrating.

Good to see some Americans renouncing citizenship. US has been inclining towards greed, slavery & tyranny. The best solution is to run as far away from the harsh governance under delicate covering. I, for one, does not see the requirement of passports. We, as temporary residents of earth, have the rights to grace any green pastures & live a decent life.

I am an American by birth - not by choice - and I want out. The United States is a large-scale terrorist organization - bloodthirsty and hell bent on World Domination at any cost. The U.S. is the Pit Bull of the World Community - attacking at random - as that is its nature. The World Community needs to pull together, muzzle this out-of-control Pit Bull Beast and lock it securely back in its own yard where it rightfully belongs - allowing the rest of the world to live in peace - to follow their inalienable right to live their lives as they see fit - on their own terms - not America's. Period. Forgive the Americans - "For they know not what they do" - to quote from an often-read book here in the US of A.

I can bail to Germany if I want to, but I don't.  This is my home, regardless of what it's done to me.

you don't have to leave to expatriate, you can repatriate to a "state," which were seen as proper countries before the civil war. Read a book called "The Red Amendment," it's jaw-dropping
