As the years go by, I'm seeing less and less value in remaining an American citizen. Since I was born here, I was under the impression that America was the last country in the world wherein its citizens were protected from tyrannical governmental regimes by our beloved Constitution. I was under the false impression that we were truly a free country, so long as everyone plays by the rules.

Over the past 16 years, we have witnessed a litany of morally bankrupt and corrupt politicians who have repeatedly attempted to subvert the US Constitution over this "terrorist hates my American freedoms" boogeyman scare story. (and those are just the few stories that have come to light thanks to patriots like Snowden who exposed the regime's anti-American actions against our Constitutional Rights...imagine what else they have done that we aren't aware of). To add injury to insult, the government tries to hide their attempted subversion of our Constitutional Rights under "National Security" bullshit excuses.

So why am I paying a fuck ton of income taxes, and am arm and a leg in living expenses to be illegally spied upon by my own government and logged in a database for the upcoming totalitarian regime (they are trying to create) to do with it as it sees fit? I could just as easily move to any European country and get the same treatment....and the only difference is that the cost of living in those countries is 10x cheaper than what it is here in America.

It doesn't take a Rhodes Scholar to see the writing on the wall. I liken myself to one of the Jews who (very early on) saw the same in Adolf Hitler when he first came into power (and subsequently moved the fuck out of Germany before shit hit the fan).

So strictly speaking from a financial perspective.....it's looking less and less like it's in my best financial interests to remain a citizen in this country.

Where is this alleged "freedom", that I'm paying an arm and a leg for via income taxes, and an extremely expensive cost-of-living by staying in America?

I'm not even going to get into the fact that they have allowed over 50,000,000 illegal aliens from south of our border to come into this country and infest (and destroy the quality of life) every single city they move into.

Can someone logically refute my above statements with facts (and not using propaganda, lies or fallacies to attempt to refute my feelings)?

Anyone?
