The New Travel Ban You Didn’t Hear About Is Against U.S. Citizens (http://theantimedia.org/irs-travel-ban-us-citizens/)

As emotions intensify over Trump’s recent immigration ban,
the State Department and IRS have quietly used it as a smokescreen
to roll out a new policy that targets U.S. citizens for unpaid taxes.
The passports of these individuals can now be revoked and their citizenship status undermined
at the behest of one of the government’s most corrupt agencies.
By granting the Internal Revenue Service control over passports, due process has been significantly undermined.
The shield of protection that U.S. citizenship used to represent
has transformed into an inescapable brand of ownership.
The desperate financial condition of the federal government will only worsen in the future,
forcing it to further consume its own people’s wealth in order to survive.
The new program is set to be implemented over the next few months,
and currently only those with ‘seriously delinquent tax debt’ are in the crosshairs.
An individual must have $50,000 worth of tax debt to be subject to revocation,
but
that number can easily be adjusted downward in the future.
Once identified by the IRS,
a certification is sent to the State Department to begin the process.
The taxpayer is then informed of the action taken against them,
but any recourse from there is extremely limited.
This policy blatantly targets citizens living outside of the country
who may not have filed with the IRS while earning an income abroad.
The United States is one of only two countries in the world
that entitles itself to tax citizens while they work in other countries.
These regulations were bolstered by FACTA legislation,
which requires all foreign financial institutions to report account information on Americans.
The additional risks that come with having to deal directly with the U.S. government
have led many foreign banks to deny American clients altogether.
The pride that used to be associated with American citizenship
created a country of opportunity for those willing to work hard,
but now that pride has been replaced with a ball and chain
that drags down the prosperity of those hindered by it.
Tax evasion is seen by many as a crime deserving of severe punishment,
but the hypocrisy of a nation like the United States
claiming the moral high ground is laughable.
Those who can distance themselves from the jurisdiction of bureaucrats in Washington
should do so as soon as possible.
America is starting to resemble the Titanic,
and there aren’t enough lifeboats for the passengers.
The objective now should be to avoid being pulled under the water
when the $20 trillion debt bubble implodes.
