Even the most socialist countries in the world do not tax citizens for income made in their home country as well as abroad. The US is among the only countries other than Libya and a couple of other dirtbag areas that implement this draconian law. It's time to change that law so we aren't even more socialist than Europe.

Yeah, i was talking to a guy from Yemen and he told me there's no tax on income, but there's not alot of things to show for, such as a fire department among other things. It wasn't a rosy picture that he painted, to say the least.

Municipalities provide for fire departments. You can move to a town with only a volunteer dept.
WASHINGTON — A deal with Switzerland settling U.S. demands for the names of suspected tax dodgers from a Swiss bank has a lot of wealthy Americans with offshore accounts nervously running to their tax advisers — and the Internal Revenue Service.

The U.S. and Swiss governments announced a court settlement last week in efforts by the IRS to force Zurich-based UBS AG to turn over the names of some 52,000 Americans believed to be hiding nearly $15 billion in assets in secret accounts.

Even before the settlement, the high-profile case — coupled with other U.S. efforts to go after Americans hiding undeclared assets — has scared hundreds of tax dodgers to turn themselves in. Boggs said his firm has been taking on 100 new cases a month, a big increase over previous years.

"We should have put a clampdown on these tax havens a long time ago".

President Barack Obama, in his proposed 2010 budget, asked Congress to pay for 800 additional agents, examiners and lawyers to go after people who hide money overseas. Obama also wants Congress to require overseas financial institutions doing business in the U.S. to share more information with the IRS.
"Hey b*tches with the tax-havens, you'd just paid for my "free" health care insurance"!! (in best Rick James voice--) I got free health care, Biaaytch!!....
All kidding aside, those that stand to profit in the U.S. should at least be grateful to share the burden among hard times within the system in which they derived the wealth from.

Totally agree, especially with the Rick James!
I read someplace $15B but I dont know that that's what is hidden overseas now.
The fact you still talk about gold like it's the be-all end-all currency is telling.
I also said hard commodities. Obviously you can't house uranium in your basement, but anything real and tangible as the IRS cannot trace it.
Just think of gold as the tax free money.
