With Australia's takeover comes the Communist Manifesto, the first plank of which is "Abolition of all property in land and the application of all rents of land to public purposes."  Property taxes are totally not taxes at all!  They are rents of land used for public purposes.  And once that hits, Norfolk Island will see homelessness for the first time.

They very hypocritically LOVE their body guards being armed to the teeth. They very much LOVE it when THEIR President starts illegal wars and murders innocents with all manner of weapons. They LOVE it when he sells American weapons to Mexican drug cartels in the evil hope they will be used on Americans and bolster his twisted anti-gun policies. Libtards cheered when he funded and armed the Muslim Brotherhood and ISIS and had the Libyan Ambassador murdered. Their hypocrisy is mind-boggling.

That was certainly the case when Barack Obama signed the HIRE Act into law in 2011.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It was intended to spur job growth in the Land of the Free while the wounds of the financial crisis were still fresh.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But always remember the rule of thumb with legislation: the more noble-sounding the name of a law, the more destructive its consequences. The HIRE Act did not disappoint.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Deep within its bowels fell the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, or FATCA for short. It was a sort of ‘law within a law’, and one of the dumbest in US history.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;FATCA effectively commanded every single bank on the planet to enter into an information-sharing agreement with the IRS.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Well, not so much ‘information sharing’. More like ‘information giving’. Because the US government doesn’t share anything with anyone.)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It all started based on a phony assumption that millions of Americans were hiding trillions of dollars in secret offshore accounts. And given how broke the US government is, they wanted every penny they were entitled to.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So the plan was to turn every bank in the world into a global spy network.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Any bank that didn’t comply was threatened with a crippling 30% withholding tax on every dollar that went in, out, and through the Land of the Free.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Banks complied. And FATCA was rolled across the world.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Eventually foreign governments stepped in and negotiated government-to-government information sharing agreements.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The idea was that, instead of banks sharing information directly with the IRS, they would give all the information to their national governments, which would then hand everything over to the United States.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Essentially it created another layer of bureaucracy, with ‘FATCA departments’ now within finance ministries around the world.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The first of these government-to-government information sharing agreements, or IGAs as they are known, went into effect on the first of this month.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So FATCA truly has graduated to the next level of stupidity.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Here’s why:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Remember, the entire law was passed based on a premise that it would quickly fill the government’s empty coffers with oodles of cash.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But that hasn’t happened.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The government itself admits that over the last 5-6 years, government programs to eliminate offshore tax evasion have brought in $6.5 billion, or roughly $1 to $1.3 billion per year.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That’s not even enough to fund the annual budget for the government’s obscure ‘Corporation for National and Community Service’.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And according to the Association of Certified Financial Crime Specialists (ACFCS), an organization specializing in tax evasion, FATCA will continue to generate roughly $800 million per year in tax revenue.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yet $800 million doesn’t even constitute a drop in the bucket anymore; it’s enough to pay about 17 hours worth of interest on the national debt.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Even if ACFCS is way off and the real amount is 10x their estimate, the funds still won’t come anywhere close to what FATCA was supposed to bring in for Uncle Sam.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But it certainly raises the question—isn’t SOME money better than NO money?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;No. Not when the cost is this high.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It’s not like implementing FATCA around the world is free. Banks and governments have had to incur substantial costs to comply. And those costs are ongoing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Think about it—dozens upon dozens of nations across the world have to go through the trouble to change their banking laws and privacy regulations. In some cases they might even have needed to amend their Constitutions or hold a referendum.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thousands of banks have had to suffer increased costs of compliance as well.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The British government alone estimated that the cost of compliance for UK businesses would be $80 to $150 million per year. Just in one country. It’s unreal.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now imagine those same costs in France. Spain. Germany. Japan. Etc.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The costs to foreign banks and governments start to exceed the benefit to Uncle Sam very quickly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This basically qualifies as extortion. The US government made a bunch of threats, forcing banks and foreign governments to comply with its stupid law.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It would be a hell of a lot easier if they had just blackmailed them all into making a donation to reduce the US federal debt, instead of creating yet another bureaucracy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Even former IRS commissioner Steven Miller stated last year to the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;“I can’t even say with conviction that I’m sure, looking strictly on a cost-benefit basis, that FATCA’s. . . benefits are going to outweigh the cost.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;FATCA constitutes theft. The US government is generating a little bit of revenue and the great expense of foreign banks and governments.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(not to mention the thousands of Americans who have had to renounce their citizenship because of FATCA’s idiotic rules.)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It’s a sad to realize that the only way the US government can generate revenue is to chase boogeymen across the world and hold foreign banks and government hostage at the point of a gun.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If tax evasion in the US really were such a massive problem (which, by the way, the data shows that’s it’s not), why don’t they just attack the root cause?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The US tax code is embarrassingly antiquated. The last major revision was from the 1980s, and it doesn’t take into account globalization, the digital revolution, or anything else that’s happened in the last three decades.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Instead of violence and intimidation, why not just work to streamline the tax code and make America more competitive?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sadly, this no longer enters the government psyche in the Land of the Free.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Our goal is simple: To help you achieve personal liberty and financial prosperity no matter what happens.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">JakDac</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 13 Oct 2015 18:50:02 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: FATCA: the dumbest law in history just went to the next level</title><link>http://www.sovereignman.com/trends/fatca-the-dumbest-law-in-history-just-went-to-the-next-level-17532/#comment-2305872752</link><description>&lt;p&gt;DECADES out of USA and LOVE the USA&lt;br&gt;Many are finding out through FATCA that the USA has CBT not as the rest of the world RBT (Citizen based / Resident based tax). &lt;br&gt;USA was founded on unfair taxation YET they want taxes on my foreign tax free pension (payed tax on way in) also they want to tax my house sale which is non taxed over here in Australia AND I did not get the interest breaks Americans get .&lt;br&gt;We are ambassadors over here defending the USA and reminding people what would have happened in the world wars if the USA was not involved.&lt;br&gt;Why is the USA punishing us when EVERY other westernized country uses RBT&lt;br&gt;A lot of people state that the USA is not the country they remember growing up in and THAT is sad.

(disguised as the military industrial complex, the central banking system, usury, government "services" that keep the slaves in FEAR and provide empty promises to "keep them safe"... and so many other things that are part of the US citizen's everyday life).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Human nature being what it IS... it is difficult to estimate what might trigger a revolt when pressures of conscripted labor/slavery reach an un-known point.... and when that day rolls 'round, if the slaves have access to firearms the situation will be VERY hard to bring back under CONTROL....&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So the solution is obvious... remove the "easy-at a distance ability" for the masses of slaves to take out their retaliatory uglies on their erstwhile slave masters... lending moral support to each other as their tormentors fall at 100 yards. &lt;br&gt;Clearly, If the only ones who have the guns are the slave masters... and the slaves have only stones .... the insurgency can be suppressed quickly and effectively.

When I got back from Vietnam in 1970 and got a real job, I thought I was going to work my way to wealth. One week I worked 40 hours and after taxes and FICA, my takehome pay was $200. The next week I worked 60 hours and after taxes and FICA, my takehome pay was $220. That was a valuable lesson. I avoided a lot of overtime, never worked two jobs, and didn't seek jobs that paid a lot more, because the rewards were not there. I still managed to retire at age 48, in 1995, with the only income being investments, until I reached Social Security.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">oldbill</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 13 Oct 2015 14:16:42 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Three obvious signs the entire system is changing</title><link>http://www.sovereignman.com/trends/three-obvious-signs-the-entire-system-is-changing-17525/#comment-2305144680</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Not sure what 1980's you grew up in, but Home mortgage rates were like 13% for a 30 Year and the Dollar was still worthless, since it was removed from the Gold Standard in 1972.   You can also call Ronny Reagan the Father of National Debt and The Father of Terrorism as we know it today, by paying off the Iranian terrorists,like $5 Billion is held assets to release the 52 hostages.   Ronny negotiated with Terrorists undermining the Carter Admin..  No doubt about it.  And the Berlin wall was already falling, so Mr RR Opportunity just called a spade a spade.  Reagan gave birth to the Military Industrial Complex Mafia that we see today bankrupting us and losing every war since then due to fraud and incompetence.

I should be treated no differently than my workmates: pay my fair share of taxes in Canada where I live, work, and try to invest. But because I have this American citizenship stamp on my forehead, I am treated like a slave and must file taxes with the homeland. We are toxic to foreign nations; the US uses us to syphon foreign capital for its own uses; by any definition this is theft and we are slaves (they tax us because they own us). It is worse than what Donald Trump accuses Mexico of doing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How does the president think foreign countries and foreign banks are going to react? Doing any business with Americans is now toxic and 160k foreign financial institutions have been slapped with huge expenses and in some cases huge fines. The answer is the obvious 'don't do business with America'. It's not just the $2 trillion in exports that are in danger but also cheaply made foreign goods and services. We'll see how the public reacts when they find out nobody wants to do business with them.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Powerunit</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 13 Oct 2015 11:32:07 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Buying and Storing Gold in Singapore</title><link>http://www.sovereignman.com/expat/buying-and-storing-gold-in-singapore-9057/#comment-2305083204</link><description>&lt;p&gt;How depositary in Singapore is better than in Switzerland?

Why store in such a company's vault vs. "bury in the backyard": (1) definitely more reliable (chance it would be robbed is close to 0; besides, it is insured etc.) and (2, which is even more important) if you want to sell, you can do it quickly and easily, while if gold is physically in your posession, the process of selling becomes much more complicated and costly.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Serge</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 13 Oct 2015 10:36:20 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: FATCA: the dumbest law in history just went to the next level</title><link>http://www.sovereignman.com/trends/fatca-the-dumbest-law-in-history-just-went-to-the-next-level-17532/#comment-2304953934</link><description>&lt;p&gt;FATCA's got nothing to do with tax evasion.

But you did something else.&lt;br&gt;  What I meant by dropping the subject entirely is that maybe it would be best for you and anyone else you might share this data with, if you didn't actually do so!  Then they wouldn't be all confused about the subject due to it not being presented to them correctly and get into even more hot water than they normally would be.  But if someone CAN duplicate in their mind what I say, then they can use the information to their advantage.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Randy&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Randy</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 11 Oct 2015 22:13:46 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Edward Snowden: “They’ve said they won’t torture me…”</title><link>http://www.sovereignman.com/trends/edward-snowden-theyve-said-they-wont-torture-me-17495/#comment-2302253581</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Your last comment does not bode well for the legitimacy of your essay, Randy. If you think that all concerned would be better off not reading or finding it, especially me who has done time in court, then I can see either your patience has worn thin or your essay contains less substance than inferred earlier. &lt;br&gt;I did find a couple of those under that title and will read them. And now, Randy, it is dropped entirely as you have encouraged the readers. My apologies for not being more perceptive.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">born2think</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 11 Oct 2015 21:28:19 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
