Given the results of the election, I took down the American flag from my house and threw it away (along with the state flag). I was intrigued by the McDonalds who flew the US flag upside down and at half mast as a distress signal.
I have a fairly large farm which has had the American flag flying over it. The US is finished ($24 trillion in debt when Obama is out of office) and will therefore fly the American flag upside down on my farm.
They should now fly "The Jolly Roger" over the white house.
To the OP, if a liberal did this we all know that you would be calling him/her an American hating terrorist lover. You know you would so stop the childish crap that you spew and get a life.
You guys don't understand. Hawkeye2009's portfolio is worth 20 million. It must be so hard for him to move 20 million out of the country.
As someone who has spent most of his life relocating to different nations on various continents, I have not found that the US restricts free movement of one's assets. In fact, I have found it one of the easiest places in the world to move assets into and out of...
If you are so unhappy with the US and don't like that you will still be liable for income tax because you remain an American citizen, there's a cure for that: Renounce your citizenship.
After all, you pledge no allegiance to this nation simple because you disagree with the president we elected. Thus, this nation obviously means nothing to you. Worse, some of you are hoping for war, a revolution, and the demise of this great nation.
If this is how you feel, then why are you still here? And why do you hold on to your citizenship? You see, you are always welcome to have whatever crazy ideas and opinions that you have. However, we do NOT need you. Frankly, I am sure there are quite a few out there who do not want you, either.
Here's the process:
The United States requires that an individual go in person to a U.S. embassy or consulate outside the U.S. and sign before a consular officer an oath or affirmation that he intends to renounce his citizenship, although exceptions are legally permitted in times of war and under special circumstances.[17][18] During the expatriation procedure, the individual must complete several documents and demonstrate in an interview with a consular officer that the renunciation is voluntary and intentional. Depending on the embassy or consulate, the individual is often required to appear in person two times and conduct two separate interviews with consular officers over the course of several months.[19]
There were between 222-235 renunciants in 2008, between 731-743 in 2009, and about 1485 in 2010;[20][21] In 2011, there were 1781 renunciants.[22]
Formal confirmation of the loss of U.S. citizenship is provided by the Certificate of Loss of Nationality and is received by the renunciant a number of months later. Renunciation of U.S. citizenship was free until July 2010, at which time a fee of $450 was established. Although many countries require citizenship of another nation before allowing renunciation, the United States does not and an individual may legally renounce U.S. citizenship and become stateless. Nonetheless, the United States Department of State warns renunciants that, unless they already possess a foreign nationality or are assured of acquiring another nationality shortly after completing their renunciation, they would become stateless and without the protection of any government.[23]
So, go ahead and do it already. Otherwise, you are simply showing the rest of us that you are, indeed, nothing but empty and meaningless words.

Yep...We all know the story of how Hawkeye2009 is a succesful doctor with a portfolio worth $20 million and yet spends all day complaining on the internet...
Tell me- what happens after $24 trillion in debt? The libs have no answer, as they know that such debt levels will result in the economic collapse of the US.
Good job libs- you have done more damage to the nation over this eight year period than all the previous enemies of the US in the course of its history combined. We defeated the Confederates, the Nazis and Japanese, and the Russians in the cold war. However, the "fifth columnists" of liberals killed the nation quickly.
That US is one of "citizens" who vote to give themselves gifts from the government and insure the economic collapse of the nation. Those who voted for Obama were traitors to the old US. Now, in the new US, it is "patriotic" to spend to insolvency and allow chaos to unfold.
The good thing is that this will result in the break up of the US- Obama just sealed the deal and accelerated the process.
Will you be missing your farm subsidy when you move? I'll be great to see another American off of welfare, won't it?

Yup, and it sounds like now we need to add "No flying the flag upside down" AND "No flag-burning" amendments to the Constitution (although I'm kinda OK with the rolls of T.P. featuring the stars & stripes)!
