You complain about the US legal system, which based on the constitution protects everyone with due process rights, and like countries like the Netherlands which have no bill of rights? Me and my family spent our life savings, endured the horrors of leaving everything behind to come to the US to enjoy the liberty and rights that are guaranteed to everyone, yet people like you are not happy and want lower standards.

Good riddance. If you don't want to be a citizen of this great country, it would be better than you.

Uhm, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitution_of_the_Netherland...

Although I agree with you that this does not seem like a good reason to renounce your US citizenship over, it is pointing out some issues with the US tax code that need fixing.

Your response doesn't address that and reads more like an ad hominem attack.

The problem the OP brings up is when you're a USA citizen living outside of the USA.

It seems like you live in the USA, so you don't have to put up with all of the unreasonable and invasive bureaucracy she writes about.

Guilty until you prove yourself innocent is not the USA way! But that's what the current systems require USA expats to do every year.
